Reds' Martinez takes no-hit bid into 9th, Steer hits 3 homers in 8-1 win over Padres
CINCINNATI — Nick Martinez took a no-hit bid into the ninth inning before allowing pinch-hitter Elias Díaz's double and Spencer Steer hit three home runs, leading the Cincinnati Reds over the San Diego Padres 8-1 on Friday night. Martinez (5-8) walked his third batter, Jackson Merrill, on a low full-count sinker, then retired 22 consecutive hitters before walking rookie Trenton Brooks starting the ninth. Díaz then drove an 0-1 changeup off the base of the wall in left-center on Martinez's 112th and final pitch, which tied his career high.

Reds' Martinez Takes No-Hit Bid Into 9th, Steer Hits 3 Homers in 8-1 Win Over Padres
Nick Martinez took a no-hit bid into the ninth inning before allowing pinch-hitter Elias Díaz's double. Spencer Steer hit three home runs, leading the Cincinnati Reds over the San Diego Padres 8–1 on Friday night. Martinez (5–8) walked his third batter, Jackson Merrill, on a low full-count sinker, then retired 22 consecutive hitters before walking rookie Trenton Brooks starting the ninth. Díaz then drove an 0–1 changeup off the base of the wall in left-center on Martinez's 112th and final pitch, which tied his career high. A 34-year-old right-hander, Martinez struck out six as the Reds won for the fourth time in five games. He also threw 112 pitches for Texas against Boston on May 28, 2015. Taylor Rogers walked a pair of batters, forcing in a run before striking out Gavin Sheets. Coming off a pair of relief appearances, Martinez made his first start since June 19. He entered with one complete game over 118 big league starts–an eight-inning effort in a loss at the Chicago Cubs last Sept. 27. After Martinez allowed seven runs over 2 2/3 innings against Minnesota, Reds manager Terry Francona suggested Martinez make a relief appearance. Martinez threw two perfect innings at St. Louis two days later, and Martinez offered to making another bullpen outing to keep starter Brady Singer on turn. Martinez pitched a 1-2-3 innings against the Yankees two days on June 23. Steer hit solo home runs in the second and fourth innings off Dylan Cease (3–7), then a two-run drive against Yuki Matsui in a four-run fifth. Steer has nine home runs this season. Key moment: Díaz's 393-foot double came on a changeup over the middle of the strike zone. Key start: There has never been a three-homer game during a no-hitter. Up next: Reds LHP Andrew Abbott (7–1, 1.79) and Padres RHP Randy Vásquez (3–4, 3.60) start Saturday.

Ramon Laureano of the Orioles breaks up no-hit bid by Texas' Jacob Latz in the 7th inning
Ramon Laureano singled to center to start the bottom of the seventh inning Tuesday night, breaking Texas left-hander Jacob Latz's no-hit bid. The Rangers led 4–0. The 29-year-old Latz walked two and struck out four–including the last three hitters of the fifth inning. This is only the third start of Latz's career. He's coming off his longest outing in the majors–5 2/3 innings of relief in a loss to Kansas City on Thursday. The Orioles went hitless for seven innings against Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt on Saturday before Gary Sanchez finally singled in the eighth off reliever JT Brubaker. Laureano's hit came on Latz's 84th pitch, which matched his career high. There was a meeting on the mound afterward, but he remained in the game. He also threw 84 pitches in a start against Cleveland on August 25, 2021. Texas scored three runs in the fourth off starter Charlie Morton.
