Blake Snell on Friday etched his name in San Francisco Giants history with a no-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Snell’s final out was fittingly against budding Reds superstar Elly De La Cruz. Despite already throwing 113 pitches at that point, the left-hander needed just one pitch to get De La Cruz out.
The Reds shortstop smacked Snell’s 98-mph fastball toward the gap in right-center field. But once Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski was able to track it down, Giants jubilation in GABP ensued.
