New Boston Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet was five outs away from history against his former team Sunday. Crochet took a no-hitter into the eighth inning against the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field (GameTracker) when second baseman Chase Meidroth found a hole through the left side of the infield with a ground-ball single.
How did the White Sox acquire Mr. Meidroth? In the Crochet trade with the Red Sox last December, of course. Here is his history-ruining single:
The single ended Crochet’s no-hit bid and also his afternoon. He was dominant, striking out 11 and getting 17 swings and misses in 7 1/3 innings. The only other batter to reach base against Crochet was Brooks Baldwin’s, who had a lead-off walk in the sixth inning. Crochet quickly retired the next three hitters to keep the no-hit chance intact.
So many no-hit bids feature that one great defensive play to save it, but not this one. According to Statcast, the White Sox put just one ball in play with better than a 50/50 chance of being a hit based on exit velocity and launch angle against Crochet, and that was Jacob Amaya’s third-inning line drive right at center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela. Meidroth’s single had a 47% hit probability.
Four starts into the season, Crochet has been everything the Red Sox expected when they sent four prospects, including Meidroth and their two recent first-round picks (Kyle Teel and Braden Montgomery) to Chicago. Sunday’s masterpiece gives him a 1.38 ERA in 26 innings, during which he’s allowed only 15 hits and eight walks. He’s struck out 28.
Crochet’s no-hit bid was the longest in baseball in the early days of the new season. Before Sunday, no pitcher had taken a no-hitter into the seventh inning this year, and only three took a no-hitter into the sixth.

Seahawks’ Jalen Milroe has message for teams that passed on him in 2025 NFL Draft: ‘Belt to ass’
Getty Images The Seattle Seahawks took Jalen Milroe in the third round of the NFL Draft, a decision Milroe thinks they won't regret. Milroe, the fourth quarterback taken in the draft at No. 92 overall (No. 28 in the third round) made sure he had a message for all the teams that ended up passing on him with the first 91 picks.

While Milroe finished with the most touchdowns in the SEC last season (36), he also had the most turnovers (15). He had 16 passing touchdowns and 20 rushing touchdowns, the latter was the third most for a quarterback in SEC history.

Wegen Umbruch im Sommer – Real-Star auf der Streichliste
