Phillies righty Vince Velasquez has a no-hitter through 6

Updated Mar. 4, 2020 12:17 p.m. ET

PHILADELPHIA (AP) Trevor Story broke up Vince Velasquez's no-hitter with an RBI double with two outs in the seventh inning Thursday.

The hard-throwing Phillies righty retired 20 of the first 21 Rockies batters he faced before he walked Carlos Gonzalez. Story then lined Velasquez's 105th pitch - a curve - to left.

Velasquez got a standing ovation as he exited after the hit. Velasquez looked nothing like the pitcher who allowed 10 runs against the Brewers last Friday. He had six strikeouts and walked two.
