Bailey retired Brandon Crawford, Tony Abreu and Gregor Blanco to finish off his second no-hitter in the past calendar year. By accomplishing the feat, Bailey became the first pitcher in baseball to be responsible for the game's past two no-hitters since Nolan Ryan in 1975. Bailey also no-hit the Pittsburgh Pirates on September 28, 2012.
Bailey had a perfect game through six innings but surrendered a walk to Blanco to start the seventh. That ensured the Giants would not have a perfect game thrown against them for the first time in franchise history. Instead, they were no-hit for the first time since April 27, 2003, when Kevin Millwood of the Philadelphia Phillies kept the Giants out of the "H"-column.
Bailey struck out nine batters and allowed just one walk.
