San Diego Padres ace Dylan Cease no-hit the Washington Nationals in a 3-0 win on Thursday.
This is the second no-hitter so far this season, and the second in Padres history.
Cease struck out nine Nationals and walked three, throwing 114 total pitches. The feat came behind an early Padres offensive effort, when Ha-Seong Kim hit a three-run RBI single in the first inning.
A few weeks before this season started, Cease was traded to the Padres by the Chicago White Sox. Going into Thursday’s matchup, Cease had a 9-8 record with a 3.59 ERA in 128 innings this season for a San Diego team that’s 7 1/2 games back of the Dodgers in the NL West.
