A pitcher's bid for a notable achievement ended in the seventh. The Atlanta Braves' Grant Holmes had retired 18 of the first 20 hitters. However, his streak was broken when a single was lined to left with no outs. This hit followed a leadoff walk. The right-hander was then relieved by another player.

The game was a makeup for a previously postponed matchup. The score was 2-0 in favor of the Braves after seven innings. Further details about the game are available.

The pitcher had walked three and struck out three during his time on the field. His team's last notable pitching achievement was by a different player, but the date of that event is not specified here.
