Spencer Turnbull was the story of the night at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, no-hitting the Mariners, only allowing two walks in his 50th career start as the Tigers won 5-0.
The no-hitter by Turnbull was the eighth in Tigers history, and becomes the sixth pitcher to throw one for the Olde English D. It was, incidentally, the first time he’d pitched into the ninth in his major league career.
Turnbull’s fastball was sitting around 93-95 mph all evening, with some really nice fastball movement on both the 2- and 4-seamers, mixing in the slider and generally staying away from his curve and changeup until later in the game.
