Houston Astros pitcher Ronel Blanco blanked the Blue Jays as his team won 10-0 in a blowout win.
Astros blow-by-blow announcer Todd Kalas was on hand to call the no hitter, sealing it with his 105th and final pitch.
Kalas was jumping out of his seat excited.
“Ground ball … Dubón … throws to first — NO HITTER! Ronel Blanco in his eighth career start!” Kalas shouted. “The 30-year-old makes magic on April Fools’ Day!”
Son of iconic Philadelphia commentary Harry Kalas, he has been calling at Houston for seven years and this is arguably the most excited he has been.
Dan Roche of Boston’s WBZ, who has been with the New England Patriots reporting staff, tweeted, “First no-hitter of the 2024 MLB season – with my man Todd Kalas on the call! Nicely done TK!!!
The feat was amazing, the commentary more so.
