SF Giants’ Alex Cobb was one out away from a no-hitter, Spencer Steer ruined that. He settled for a complete game.
SAN FRANCISCO — Alex Cobb was one out away from throwing a no-hitter on Tuesday night night in a 6-1 win against the Cincinnati Reds at Oracle Park.
For the fans who showed for a lazy Tuesday night game in late-August, it was clear Cobb was gunning for history by about the seventh inning. A collective glance at the scoreboard drew them all up from their feet and cheering — it was a full count, two outs against Nick Martini. Martini into a ground out to first baseman JD Davis.
Until that one-out walk in the ninth inning, the only play separating Cobb from a perfect game bid — which would have been the Giants’ first since Matt Cain’s in 2012 — was a changed call.
