5-year Marliniversary: Edinson Vólquez no-hits D-Backs
Now in their 30th season as a Major League Baseball franchise, the Florida/Miami Marlins have still never had a player hit for the cycle. While they’ve been deprived of that particular milestone, they’ve been fortunate enough to throw six no-hitters.
The most recent came on this day five years ago. Edinson Vólquez accomplished the feat in a 3-0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks.
A former All-Star with the Cincinnati Reds, Vólquez was just 1-7 for Miami as he took the mound at Marlins Park on June 3, 2017. Vólquez came in with a 4.44 ERA, but for 98 pitches, he looked like an All-Star once again while facing the minimum.
