#Madison bumgarner series
A series of Giants misplays in the second helped Arizona score two more - Rodón was late covering first on an infield single, San Francisco then botched a bunt and catcher Curt Casali made a throwing error on a steal. Kennedy hit a tying, two-run single in the first. He was pulled after 100 pitches, and is now 2-1 lifetime against the Giants.Ĭarlos Rodón (7-5) gave up four runs in five innings, striking out seven. "He was making pitches, I thought he just got nicked up for a couple of well placed hits," Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said.īumgarner gave up a two-run single to LaMonte Wade Jr. The 32-year-old lefty struck out four and walked three. But in the first of their 19 meetings this year, Bumgarner (4-8) and the D-backs prevailed.īumgarner, now in his third season with Arizona after helping the Giants win three World Series championships, allowed three runs in five innings. Last season, the Giants went 17-2 against Arizona in winning the NL West title. But for what’s going on in that room right now, for the special feeling that Madison gave us today - it was a no-hitter.Buddy Kennedy drove in a pair of runs and Cooper Hummel scored twice for Arizona.

He had been 2-6 with a 7.16 earned run average in 13 Arizona starts, none lasting even six innings.Īgainst the Braves - who managed just one hit off Zac Gallen in the first game of the doubleheader - Bumgarner was dazzling. The league said on Sunday that it would abide by the definition of the Elias Sports Bureau: “No-hitters by teams and individuals shall not be credited in scheduled seven-inning games, unless the game goes to extra innings and the team (or individual in a complete game) pitches at least nine innings and does not allow a hit.”įor Bumgarner, who starred in three World Series for the San Francisco Giants in the 2010s, it was easily the best start in his two seasons with the Diamondbacks, who signed him to a five-year, $85 million contract in December 2019. Sunday was the first time since then that a pitcher has tossed a no-hitter in a doubleheader - except it won’t count as one. In an effort to speed the proceedings during the coronavirus pandemic, Major League Baseball declared last season that games played as part of a doubleheader would last only seven innings instead of nine. His official statistics will reflect a victory, a shutout and a complete game - but not the distinctive part of the achievement. Bumgarner went the distance for the Arizona Diamondbacks to beat the Braves, 7-0. Madison Bumgarner took the mound in Atlanta on Sunday afternoon for a game that was scheduled to last seven innings.
