It took Wade Miley 143 games to throw his first career shutout on April 30, 2016. Just over five years and 118 games later, he made sure his second one was indelible.
Miley threw a no-hitter Friday night against Cleveland, striking out eight batters with one walk on 114 pitches. It's the 17th no-hitter in Reds history and first since Homer Bailey no-hit the Giants on July 2, 2013.
For much of the game, it appeared Miley would need luck to even pick up a win. The game was a scoreless tie heading into the top of the ninth inning when Cincinnati struck for three runs against the Cleveland bullpen.
