Diamondbacks rookie throws no-hitter in first major league start
CBSN
There was Theodore, Bumpus and Bobo. Now there's Tyler Gilbert.
The Diamondbacks left-hander became the fourth pitcher to throw a no-hitter in his first big league start, lifting Arizona over the San Diego Padres 7-0 Saturday night with the record-tying eighth no-hitter in the majors this season. The last to accomplish the feat in his first start was Bobo Holloman of the St. Louis Browns on May 6, 1953. Bumpus Jones also did it in his major league debut with the Cincinnati Reds on October 15, 1892, and Theodore Breitenstein threw one in his first start for the Browns on October 4, 1891.More Related News
