Gilbert (1-1) fired a no-hitter, earning the win over the Padres on Saturday. He struck out five and walked three.
Gilbert made his first career start in his fourth appearance this season. He was the first player to throw a no-hitter in his first MLB start since Bobo Holloman in 1953 for the St. Louis Browns, per AP News. He allowed just three walks, which happened to all be against Tommy Pham. The 27-year-old has yet to allow an earned run and has just two hits against him in 12.2 innings this season. His fantastic performance bodes well for his chances of sticking around in a starting role.
