DeGrom took a perfect game into the seventh inning and a no-hitter into the eighth inning against the Orioles.

When Jacob deGrom is at his best, the Texas Rangers believe he's the best pitcher on the planet. The two-time Cy Young Award winner certainly is looking like his old self. DeGrom flirted with a perfect game through six innings and a no-hitter through seven Wednesday night in another dominating performance in his return from Tommy John surgery in June 2023.

DeGrom nearly pitched the sixth no-hitter in Texas Rangers history on Wednesday when he keyed a 7-0 win at Baltimore. DeGrom (8-2) carried a perfect game into the seventh inning, but Jackson Holliday worked a leadoff walk on seven pitches. With two outs in the inning, Ryan O’Hearn drew another walk.
