Parker Messick (P - CLE)

4/17/26 3:47 AM - Rookie pitcher Parker Messick comes within 3 outs of ending Cleveland's 45-year no-hitter drought. Rookie left-hander Parker Messick came within three outs of ending Cleveland’s 45-year drought without a no-hitter. Instead, he became the second Guardians pitcher in eight months to fall short in the ninth inning. “I did my best. Maybe next time,” Messick said after Cleveland’s 4-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Leody Taveras led off the ninth with a grounder that just eluded diving second baseman Juan Brito and went into right field for a single to break up Messick's no-hit bid. Cleveland still has the longest current gap between no-hitters of any major league franchise. The team’s most recent one was Len Barker’s perfect game on May 15, 1981, against the Toronto Blue Jays.
