Inscription. In his Phillies debut at Citizens Bank Park, Michael Lorenzen recorded the 14th no-hitter in franchise history. The right-hander jumped into the arms of catcher J.T. Realmuto after getting Nationals first baseman Dominic Smith to fly out to end the game. The no-hitter was the first by a Phillies pitcher at Citizens Bank Park in the regular season and just the second overall after Roy Halladay's no-no in the 2010 NLDS against the Cincinnati Reds.
