Oakland turn the tables on fancied Boston Red Sox

Cleveland, Phillies among the day’s other winners

Sean Manaea pitched a no-hitter as the Oakland Athletics beat the red-hot Boston Red Sox 3-0 Saturday night at Oakland Coliseum.

Manaea (3-2) tossed the 12th no-hitter in franchise history, finishing the milestone with 108 pitches and facing three above the minimum. He was mobbed by his teammates after completing the seventh no-hitter in the Oakland era as “Celebration” by Kool and the Gang blared.

“Oh man, my heart was beating out of my chest, and I was trying to do everything I could [to stay calm],” Manaea told Braden in a postgame interview. The effort also marked Manaea’s first career complete game. The Red Sox were no-hit for the 12th time in team history and first time since April 22, 1993. The Red Sox dropped to 17-3 and saw an eight-game winning streak stopped.

Mike Clevinger (2-0) pitched his first career shutout and Jose Ramirez went 3-for4 with a homer as Cleveland cruised over host Baltimore 4-0 at Camden Yards.

Rhys Hoskins drove in four runs, including three on a goahead home run in the sixth inning, as the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2 in Philadelphia.

Hoskins added a runscoring single in a three-run eighth inning as the Phillies beat the Pirates for the third time in three days. Sean Rodriguez homered for Pittsburgh, which lost for the fifth time in its last six games.
