DETROIT (AP) — Matt Manning combined with relievers Jason Foley and Alex Lange on a no-hitter as the Detroit Tigers beat the Toronto Blue Jays 2-0. Manning pitched 6 2/3 innings, Foley got four straight outs and Lange finished it in the ninth. Manning said he didn’t even realize he hadn’t allowed a hit when he was pulled from the game. It was the ninth no-hitter in Tigers history and the first combined one. The no-hitter was the second in the majors this season after Domingo Germán’s perfect game for the New York Yankees at Oakland last month. The Houston Astros had two combined no-nos last year, one in the regular season and one in the World Series.
