Happy 33rd birthday to Jonathan Sanchez, who threw a no-hitter for the San Francisco Giants in 2009.
On Friday, July 10, 2009, Sanchez no-hit the San Diego Padres for an 8-0 win over the Friars at AT&T Park. Sanchez struck out 11 and walked none. The only runner to reach base was Chase Headley, who got on board on an error by third baseman Juan Uribe with one out in the eighth.
