Sonny Gray was almost overloaded with reasons to celebrate. As if taking a no-hitter into the eighth inning and reaching 2,000 career strikeouts weren't enough, his brilliant outing Sunday night for Boston came against the rival New York Yankees — a team Gray once pitched for and hasn't been shy ...
Key takeaway So yeah, it was a good series and it was a pretty sick finish to the series for us,” Gray said after the Red Sox rallied for a 5-4 victory in 10 innings.
Why this matters in The San Antonio
While the no-hitter bid by Red Sox pitcher Sonny Gray against the Yankees is a notable event in the baseball world, San Antonio residents may be more interested in the fact that this game is a reminder of the strong following for Major League Baseball in the city. Although San Antonio does not have a MLB team of its own, the city's baseball fans often closely follow the fortunes of nearby teams, including the Houston Astros and the Texas Rangers. The Red Sox and Yankees, as two of the most storied franchises in baseball, also have a significant number of fans in the San Antonio area, making games like this one a major draw for local sports bars and restaurants. As the MLB season heats up, San Antonio fans will likely be keeping a close eye on the standings and rooting for their favorite teams.
