Former San Diego State commit and current San Diego Padres pitcher Joe Musgrove took the mound at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas on April 9, 2021 and did not step off of it for nine innings after throwing the first no-hitter in franchise history.
Prior to Friday night’s contest, the Friars were the only remaining team without a no-hitter.
That streak is no longer.
The only Texas Ranger to reach base was hit by a pitch. The remainder of Musgrove’s 112 tosses (and 10 strikeouts) that historic night kept the opposition at bay.
From Slam Diego to No-No Diego, the Padres have quickly become Rangers’ manager Chris Woodward’s worst nightmare.
