Boone on ending Schmidt's no-hit bid: 'Knew he was done'

NEW YORK -- Clarke Schmidt walked off the mound after getting through his seventh hitless inning and exchanged a glance with New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone in the dugout.

That was it for Schmidt. Done for the day.

While the right-hander was disappointed, he certainly understood Boone's decision to take him out of the game even with a no-hitter going. Schmidt was pulled after tying a career high with 103 pitches, and the Yankees lost a no-hit bid Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles when Gary Sánchez singled to start the eighth off JT Brubaker.
