SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco right-hander Alex Cobb carried a no-hit bid through seven innings against the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night with the help of a scoring change.
Nick Senzel was credited with a single in the third inning on a two-hopper that third baseman Casey Schmitt snagged with a backhand grab. The rookie's throw from foul territory was high and pulled a leaping J.D. Davis off the first-base bag.
Official scorer Chris Thoms originally called the play a hit, then changed it to an errore.
That was the only runner to reach through seven innings off Cobb, who struck out six and threw 99 pitches. The Giants led 6-0.
Cobb was trying to win for the first time in eight starts since July 5.
