A 22-year-old Hunter spun the A's first no-hitter since coming to Oakland -- it was only their 25th game since moving from Kansas City after the 1967 season. The 1990 World Series was the championship series of Major League Baseball's (MLB) 1990 season. On this night, Stewart’s mound opponent was left-hander John Cerutti, a pitcher who had been in and out of Toronto’s rotation earlier in his career but now seemed to be in the starting five for good after a solid 1989 in which he finished ninth in AL ERA (3.07). On this day in 1990, Oakland A's pitcher Dave Stewart and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Fernando Valenzuela each threw no-hitters. Leadoff man Walt Weiss reached on a wild throw by shortstop Fernandez that was scored as an infield single. Thinking that Browning was en route to a nearby hospital, the Reds had their radio broadcaster Marty Brennaman put out an All Points Bulletin on Browning, a bulletin that was picked up by Tim McCarver on CBS television, who passed it along in the tenth inning. The sweep extended the Reds' World Series winning streak to nine games, dating back to 1975. Dibble and Myers provided three scoreless innings in relief to put the Reds one win away from the title. It is remembered for Billy Hatcher's seven consecutive hits. The change in this instance was necessitated by an early season lockout which had caused the first week of the season to be postponed.
