Only ONE HIT allowed by Michael King in his Wild Card outing. 👀 https://t.co/wMqVe36RBx Via @NBCSports on X

What happened: King took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning of his Wild Card Round start. He finished with seven scoreless innings and one hit allowed.

Why it matters: Length like that saves high-leverage relievers in a short series. A Game 1 shutdown start shifts the pitching pressure to the opponent for Game 2.

By the numbers: 7.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R; no-hit bid into seventh, lone hit was infield single

What to watch: The Wild Card series continues with the Game 2 slate.
