WATCH: Michael Lorenzen says Phillies fans gave him chills before walking out in the 9th to throw no-hitter
Michael Lorenzen talks about moments before throwing 14th no-hitter in Phillies franchise history on Aug. 9, 2023.Michael Lorenzen threw the 14th no-hitter in Philadelphia Phillies history, a dazzling performance in only his second start with his new team, which beat the Washington Nationals 7-0 on Wednesday night.
"I didn't strike out the world in this game. When you are pitching, balls can land in different places. I just had God's grace today," Lorenzen said. "It was incredible. Walking out for the seventh, eighth and ninth, man, these fans. I've never been part of an organization where fans are a part of the team," Lorenzen said. "And they gave me that boost that I needed. ... If you are feeling fatigued, you don't feel it at all in front of these fans."
Lorenzen pushed his pitch count to the point where it was questionable if manager Rob Thomson would let him finish the game. But he kept the ball and became the first Phillies pitcher to throw a no-hitter since Cole Hamels on July 25, 2015, against the Chicago Cubs. Hamels retired last week. Lorenzen, an All-Star this season for the Tigers, threw a season-high eight innings of two-run ball in his Phillies debut last week and is the fourth pitcher over the past 30 seasons to throw a no-hitter within his first two games pitched for a franchise.
