Tigers nearly no-hit again, lose sixth straight on walk-off single vs. Phillies

Detroit − Looking at it honestly, it felt almost inevitable the Tigers were going to get no-hit. They’d been threatening to be no-hit in just about every game of this six-game road trip.

On Thursday, right-hander Zack Wheeler was five outs away from pitching the 14th no-hitter in the rich history of the Philadelphia Phillies.

But with one out in the eighth, Jonathan Schoop reached on an error by former Tiger Josh Harrison and Tyler Nevin followed with a line single to right. Suddenly, the Tigers went from no-hit fodder to having a chance to win a baseball game.
