Making his third pro start, Dodgers pitching prospect Leonardo Crawford and two relievers combined to throw a no-hitter Thursday.
Via MLB.com:
Crawford struck out nine hitters and walked one in 6 2/3 innings, giving way to a pair of relievers — Wally Vrolijk and Johan Diaz — who finished the no-no.
The Dodgers only spent $47,500 of their allotted $1,963,800 bonus pool total on Crawford last July, according to MiLB.com. Crawford allowed two hits in five innings in his debut on May 30 and struck out six while giving up three hits and a walk in his next start on June 5. Over 17 1/3 innings this year, he stands at 3-0 and has already shelved 19 hitters.
