ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — New York Mets starter Sean Manaea took a no-hitter into the sixth inning against Texas on Wednesday night, even after the Rangers scored off the left-hander in the first inning.
The no-hit bid ended in the sixth, when the Rangers tied it and quickly knocked Manaea out of the game.
Texas didn't get its first hit until Robbie Grossman lined a sharp single to left with one out in the sixth. That ended a string of 14 consecutive batters retired by Manaea since walking the bases loaded before hitting a batter to force home a run in the first inning.
Grossman scored when Josh Smith doubled into the right-field corner, chasing Manaea. Wyatt Langford then greeted reliever Sean Reid-Foley with an RBI single that tied it at 3.
