The opening bout of the Mexico Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres was historic on many levels. For one, it was the club’s first trip to Monterrey since 1991 and first international game since 2014.
It was a successful opening contest at that, as the Dodgers extended their win streak to three games after the quartet of Walker Buehler, Tony Cingrani, Yimi Garcia and Adam Liberatore collectively accounted for the first combined no-hitter in franchise history.
Digging deeper, it was the 23rd overall no-hitter in Dodgers history and first since Clayton Kershaw accomplished the feat by himself in 2014.
