Pitcher Earl Wilson’s no hitter fuels Red Sox win at Fenway
Earl Wilson starred for Boston with a two nothing no hitter over the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway Park. Bo Belinsky matched him by throwing a no hitter earlier in the season. Wilson’s line included four walks and five strikeouts, plus his second homer of the year. Cleveland topped Detroit 3-1 on a four‑hitter cover, while other leagues saw Pasquel strike out 12 and Rollins power, Minnesota blanked New York 5-0. Billed as a budding star, Wilson rose from obscurity to headline acclaim in a week marked by limited runs and four shutouts across six games.
