Dodgers flirt with a combined no-hitter at Dodger Stadium as Glasnow crafts seven hitless innings with 11 strikeouts in a 3-1 win over Colorado before Ryan Ritter spoils it with a ninth-inning double off Tyler Scott.

Yamamoto nearly joined the elite club a night earlier, carrying a perfect start to 8 2/3 against Baltimore before a late breakdown. MLB still awaits a no-hitter this season; Cubs’ 2024 no-no and Snell’s solo no-hitter last year loom large in the narrative as Glasnow returns from injury and the Dodgers survive the near-miss.

Context and historical notes underscore how elusive the no-hitter remains, with the 2005 season the last without a complete one.

Dodgers flirt with a no-hitter, Glasnow rides seven innings with 11 strikeouts, then Treinen and Scott finish as Ryan Ritter breaks the bid with a ninth-inning double for Colorado. Yoshinobu Yamamoto also came close against Baltimore on Saturday. MLB remains without a season-long solo no-hitter; Dodgers sit atop the NL West at 80-64, while Colorado sinks to 40-104. Fantasy takeaway: late-inning bullpen usage and pitcher health shape the stretch run.

Near-misses and bullpen choreography highlight the fantasy angle: Glasnow’s status after a back issue, Yamamoto’s breakout stamina, and the Dodgers’ closer mix could influence playoff rotations and late-season stream calls. Competition for innings remains fierce in a tight division race.

Colorado's rebuild gains momentum with a young core stepping up: Hunter Goodman, Ezequiel Tovar and Kyle Karros anchor a lineup that’s finally showing a pulse. Interim manager Warren Schaeffer is reshaping the culture while the farm system is under scrutiny as Colorado eyes a 2026 turnaround. A brutal season still looms, but a purposeful path forward against Padres and Dodgers signals a franchise planning for real competition.

Arizona stitched together a late surge to flip a tight contest with Colorado, as Lourdes Gurriel Jr. ripped a ninth-inning double off the wall to score Geraldo Perdomo and seal a 6-5 win for the Diamondbacks. Gurriel drove in three runs on the night, adding a sac fly and a single earlier as Corbin Carroll homered for the third straight game on a Star Wars bobblehead night that drew a robust crowd. The win came with Andrew Hoffmann, just acquired from Kansas City, firing a clean 1-2-3 ninth for his MLB victory. Ketel Marte contributed with a double that helped spark a three-run third, while Perdomo added his third hit of the game, setting the stage for Gurriel’s dramatic finale. On the other side, Brenton Doyle’s two-run blast and a trio of Rockies RBIs from Kyle Farmer, Warming Bernabel and Ezequiel Tovar kept Colorado in it until the last out. Colorado starter Eduardo Rodríguez lasted 5 1/3 innings, and while Blalock added a late four-bit line, the ninth-inning rally wasn’t enough to keep the series from slipping away. The Diamondbacks move to a fragile .500-ish position, but the late-inning power and timely hitting create a promising fantasy narrative around Gurriel, Carroll, Hoffmann, and Perdomo as the five-tool core remains potent.
