Miami Marlins starter Cal Quantrill was dealing Sunday afternoon against the Tampa Bay Rays. So much so that he made a bit of MLB history when he tossed an immaculate inning in the top of the fourth.
Quantrill's immaculate inning—which is when a pitcher strikes out three consecutive batters on three pitches each—was just the 116th in MLB history. After striking out the side on nine total pitches in the fourth, he threw one more inning and ended the outing giving up just two hits and one earned run.
