Greinke falls two outs shy of no-no

The Houston Astros’ Zack Greinke nearly no-hit the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday night, falling just two Outs Shy of allowing the Astros to become the first team in major-league history to toss three no-nos in a season.

Greinke was looking to follow Justin Verlander (Sept. 1) and the tandem of Aaron Sanchez (6), Will Harris (1), Joe Biagini (1) and Chris Devenski (1) (August 3), but Austin Nola lined a one-out single to left-center in the ninth.

The Milwaukee Braves (Lew Burdette, Warren Spahn and Warren Spahn) are the only team to throw three straight no-nos, but those were over two seasons, 1960 and 1961.
