Orioles’ Henderson breaks up combined no-hit bid with 2 outs in 9th, Tigers hold on for 1-0 win

Associated Press  

DETROIT — Gunnar Henderson tripled just past the glove of diving first baseman Spencer Torkelson with two outs in the ninth inning for Baltimore’s first hit, and the Detroit Tigers held on for a 1-0 win over the Orioles on Friday night. “There’s the letdown of the near-miss, but that’s still a shutout of a really good offense.” Brenan Hanifee followed Hurter and retired the next three batters. “It’s still an agonizing feeling it see Santander coming up with a runner on third and a chance to put them ahead with a big swing.” Holton, though, didn’t worry about losing the no-hit bid. “I just wanted to get us the win.” Kerry Carpenter, Detroit’s second batter, homered on the third pitch of the game from Zach Eflin, who allowed five hits in 6 2/3 innings. The game came three days after rookie Keider Montero faced the minimum 27 batters in a three-hit shutout of Colorado, Detroit’s first complete game since Spencer Turnbull no-hit Seattle on May 18, 2021.
