Bailey Falter carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning for the Pittsburgh Pirates in their 3-1 win over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday afternoon at PNC Park.

Falter (8-7) started his outing by striking out the first three batters of the game, setting the tone for the rest of his outing.

The left-hander didn’t allow his first hit of the game until Jonah Bride hit a soft-served single into left field with one out in the seventh. The Pirates (70-76) still recorded an out on the play as Billy Cook fired to third and erased Otto Lopez, who was trying to advance after drawing a leadoff walk.
