Masanao Yoshida of the MLB Red Sox threw a five-hit no-hitter against the Braves and ended his hitting streak at 5.
Yoshida started the game against the Braves in Atlanta on the 9th as the second and left fielder.
Yoshida continued to hit well, but on the day, he struggled with the slow pitching of the opposing starter, Morton, and in the first at-bat of the first inning, he jammed a fastball and hit a third fly, and in the second at-bat of the third inning, he had a chance at third base with no outs, and the curve was not timed and he collapsed into an empty strikeout.
The third at-bat of the fifth inning was a third goro, and even after the pitcher was replaced, he was struck out by a short ball and a second goro, and his consecutive hits stopped at "2" in the no-hitter since the 1th of last month, and his batting average dropped to 1 for 3.
The Red Sox lost 2-5.
