'A day I will never forget': Tigers' Olson takes no-hitter into sixth inning in debut, loses in Chicago

Chicago − The baseball he threw in his three-pitch strikeout of Luis Robert, Jr., his first big-league strikeout, was already tucked away in his locker.

"Pretty sure my dad is going to want to do something crazy with it," he said, smiling.

Reese Olson painted himself a memory Friday night, taking a no-hitter into the sixth inning of his Major League debut, with his mother, father, brother, girlfriend about about 30 other family members and friends at Guaranteed Rate Field.

"It's definitely a day I will never forget," he said.

Olson, 23, summoned from Toledo to take the rotation spot of injured ace Eduardo Rodriguez, lost his no-hitter in the sixth and the Tigers ended up losing the game 3-0 to the White Sox.
