BALTIMORE (AP) — Shane Bieber held Baltimore without a hit until the sixth inning and Owen Miller drove in four runs in his first two plate appearances as the Guardians rolled to a 6-3 victory over the Orioles.
Bieber was more than halfway to Cleveland’s first no-hitter since 1981, but the majors’ longest active drought endured when Trey Mancini lined a two-out single to left field in the sixth.
Mancini had Baltimore’s only hit until Bieber gave up two more singles to start the eighth and was lifted.
Cleveland hasn’t had a no-hitter since Len Barker threw a perfect game on May 15, 1981.
