In addition to baseball’s longest World Series championship drought, the Cleveland Guardians own baseball’s longest no-hitter drought, and that will last for another day.<\/p>\n

Guardians pitcher Gavin Williams came two outs shy of the club’s first no-hitter since 1981 Wednesday, giving up only a home run to New York Mets right fielder Juan Soto with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning. After inducing a flyout from first baseman Pete Alonso and walking left fielder Brandon Nimmo, Williams was lifted in favor of pitcher Hunter Gaddis.<\/p>\n

In a spectacle nearly as rare as a no-hitter, Mets fans rewarded Williams with a standing ovation as he walked off the mound.<\/p>\n

Gaddis retired designated hitter Mark Vientos to preserve his team’s 4\u20131 victory, which brought Cleveland within a game of the American League’s final wild-card playoff spot. Williams took the win, his seventh on the season.<\/p>\n

A no-hitter, however, will have to wait for another day.<\/p>\n
