Overview

  • Williams logged 8⅔ innings on 126 pitches, recording six strikeouts and three walks in his longest outing of the season.
  • Rookie right fielder C. J. Kayfus made a diving catch in the seventh inning to help preserve the no-hit bid into the late innings.
  • Hunter Gaddis entered after Soto’s homer to retire the final batter and earn his second save.
  • The victory completed Cleveland’s first series sweep in New York since 2017 and extended the Guardians’ recent hot streak.
  • Cleveland’s franchise no-hitter drought now dates back to Len Barker’s perfect game on May 15, 1981, the longest active streak in MLB.
