Blake Snell’s first win with the San Francisco Giants was a historic one.<br /><br />Snell threw a no-hitter on Friday night at Cincinnati's Great American Ball Park to lead the Giants to a 3-0 win over the Cincinnati Reds. It marked the first no-hitter of his career and the 18th in Giants history.<br /><br />Snell had 11 strikeouts and allowed just three runners on base via walks while throwing 114 pitches in the win. The 31-year-old had never made it through a full eight innings on the mound before Friday night, either, though he wasn't bothered by it in the moment.<br /><br />"In the eighth and ninth, I was pretty confident," Snell said on NBC Sports Bay Area after the win. "I was like, 'Let's go get it, we're not just going to waste our time here.'"<br /><br />Naturally, Snell's teammates were right there to celebrate with him — though they went a bit overboard with the water cooler during his postgame interview.
