Unranked Pirates prospect's insane streak might've just won him a job in 2026 bullpen

They say all good things must come to an end, and unfortunately, that includes Brandan Bidois' otherworldly no-hit streak.

The 24-year-old Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect didn't allow a hit from July 29 until September 14, tossing 18 hitless innings across 11 relief appearances during that span. But the streak ended Sunday after 64 batters when Bidois gave up a base hit to Iowa's Caleb Knight (though a double play and a strikeout would guarantee him his 12th consecutive scoreless appearance).

In the modern era, only one MLB pitcher has logged a longer hitless innings streak: Dennis Eckersley, with 21 in 1977.
