MLB: Bradish tosses 7 no-no innings
Kyle Bradish struck out 11 in seven nohit innings, and the Orioles beat the White Sox 4-1 on Sunday in Chicago for a sweep of their four-game series.
Bradish (1-0), who missed the beginning of the season because of a right elbow injury, walked four in his fifth start since his return. He threw 103 pitches, 63 for strikes.
Danny Coulombe was inserted for the eighth, and Danny Mendick led off with a pinch-hit drive to left for Chicago’s only hit of the game. It was Mendick’s second homer of the season.
Manager Brandon Hyde pulled Bradish because of his pitch count.
“No choice there unfortunately,” Hyde said. “It’s 103 pitches and he hasn’t gone that far and coming off an elbow strain earlier and the whole thing.
“That’s difficult because you want to see him stay out there and he’s throwing the ball so great. He was absolutely fantastic.” Bradish lowered his ERA to 1.75.
