Fisher Cats Score 10 Runs Without a Hit

0:00On April 8th, in a freezing AA matchup, Tuesday night in main 35 degrees at first pitch, the New Hampshire Fishercats lit up the Portland Sea Dogs for 10 runs in the top of the second and just one measly single. Those Fishercats, the Blue Jays AA Squad, tallyed their first 8 runs without even swinging for a hit, turning a walk into absolute chaos. It all kicked off with a lead-off walk to Sean Keys, the Jays number 17 prospect, and snowballed from there. Eight walks, two hit batters, four, wild pitches, a sack fly, and finally that single. Fourteen batters came to the plate over 31 minutes, with Portland burning through three pitchers before it ended. No errors on defense either, making it pure pitching meltdown. This kind of explosion is wild historically. No major league team has scored more than four runs without a hit since 1961, and only. 16 times has a big league hurler, given up five on no hits and under two innings.

1:02The Sea Dog staff matched that futility twice in one frame. Portland starter Hayden Mullins, Boston's number 16 prospect, struck out the side in the first, but walked five and one in the third innings. Charge with five runs. Reliever Jorge Juan didn't record an out, walking three more while allowing five runs lines unheard of in the majors, and even the Sea Dogs got in on the no hit scoring later, plating their first three runs without a knock in their home opener.
