ATLANTA (AP) — Braves starter Ian Anderson and reliever A.J Minter have combined on a no-hitter through six innings against the Houston Astros in Game 3 of the World Series.
Anderson was pulled after five innings. The 23-year-old rookie threw 76 pitches.
Minter worked the sixth, protecting Atlanta's 1-0 lead Friday night at Truist Park. Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman and the Houston batters haven't come close to a hit.
There has been just one no-hitter in World Series history, a perfect game by Don Larsen of the New York Yankees against the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1956.
