Mariners pitcher Bryce Miller loses his no-hit bid in the 7th inning against
the Angels
SEATTLE (AP) --- Bryce Miller took a no-hitter into the seventh inning for the
Seattle Mariners on Thursday night before Nolan Schanuel led off with a bloop
single to right field for the the Los Angeles Angels.
The right-hander struck out seven and walked none through six innings, throwing
50 of his 69 pitches for strikes. The only baserunner for the Angels had come
when Denzer Guzmn reached second on a throwing error by Mariners third baseman
J.P. Crawford with two outs in the fourth.
Guzmn followed Schanuel with a single of his own in the seventh, but Miller
got through the inning with a 1-0 lead.
The 27-year-old Miller took a 3-2 record and 1.97 ERA into the game. His season
debut was delayed by a strained left oblique muscle sustained in spring
training, but he joined the rotation in mid-May.
Angels rookie Walbert Urea also had a no-hitter going through five innings,
before Crawford led off the sixth with a double.
James Paxton pitched the most recent no-hitter for Seattle in a game at Toronto
on May 8, 2018. Paxton was born and raised in Canada.
The Angels haven't been no-hit since Sept. 11, 1999 --- the longest active
streak in the majors. In that game, they lost 7-0 at Minnesota, shut down by
Twins left-hander Eric Milton.
