More than 40 thousand fans stood up to cheer the Dominican, who avoided what would have been Cleveland&#8217;s first no-hitter since 1981.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Juan Soto breaks up Gavin Williams&#39; no-hit bid with a 9th inning home run <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LhM253BPjt\">pic.twitter.com\/LhM253BPjt<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SNY (@SNYtv) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SNYtv\/status\/1953174207166099583?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 6, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nRight-hander Gavin Williams was removed from the mound after 126 pitches, the most for a starter so far this season in the Major Leagues. He finished his outing with 8.2 innings of one-hit ball, one run, and 9 strikeouts.\n\nBy Cleveland, Angel Martinez hit his tenth home run of the year, a two-run shot in the third inning that put the Guardians up 3-0. Hunter Gaddis took care of the last three outs after replacing Williams, securing the victory.\n\nThe Mets (63-52) saw their three-game winning streak snapped and are now 2.5 games behind the Phillies in the National League East. Meanwhile, Cleveland celebrates its seventh consecutive victory and remains at the top of the American League Central.\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Additional data:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Juan Soto:<\/strong> 1 for 4, HR (26), 1 R, 1 RBI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Angel Mart\u00ednez:<\/strong> 1-4, HR (10), 2 RBI, 1 R<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jos\u00e9 Ram\u00edrez:<\/strong> 1-4<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Carlos Santana:<\/strong> 0-3, BB, R<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\nWith his home run, Soto also cut the longest active Major League drought without a no-hitter for a franchise, that of Cleveland, which dates back to Len Barker&#8217;s perfect game in 1981.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK.
