Today Mariner’s Hisashi
Iwakuma threw a no-hitter against the Baltimore Orioles in Seattle today. This
is the fourth no-hitter this season but the first AL no-hitter since teammate Felix
Hernandez threw one in 2012 against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Iwakuma’s gem is the fifth no-hitter in Mariner’s history and he is only the second Japanese player to throw one, the other being Hideo Nomo in 1996 and 2001.
