Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease takes a no-hit bid into the ninth inning against the San Francisco Giants, aiming to become the franchise’s first pitcher to throw a no-hitter since 1990. Multiple outlets report that Cease was three outs away from his second career no-hitter and from the second no-no of his career. Entering the bottom of the ninth with a 10-0 lead, Cease’s bid ends when Heilot Ramos singles to center field to open the inning, breaking up the no-hit performance. After the hit, Blue Jays manager John Schneider removes Cease and brings in Tyler Rogers. The near-completion continues a pattern of recent “near miss” no-hitter attempts for Toronto, according to outlet accounts, with Cease’s performance falling short despite carrying the game well into the final frame. CBS and Yahoo Sports also note Cease’s strong candidacy for marquee midseason honors, framing the outing as both a potential milestone and a missed opportunity.
