Pitching Moves & Performances

The Houston Astros combined for a no-hitter in a 9-0 victory over the Rangers on Monday night, with right-hander Tatsuya Imai and relievers Steven Okert and Alimber Santa sharing the rare feat. Across the league, the Athletics called up southpaw prospect Gage Jump, one of baseball's best left-handed pitching prospects who has posted 56 strikeouts in just 38 innings at Triple-A.

Meanwhile, experts analyzed Memorial Day standings to predict which teams would dominate from here on out as the season approaches the quarter mark. The Angels completed a sweep of the Rangers with Reid Detmers nearly perfect for eight innings while striking out a career-high 14 batters.
