The Pittsburgh Pirates didn't log a hit on Sunday.

But they still managed to win.

Led by rookie Hunter Greene, the Cincinnati Reds held the Pirates without a hit for eight innings. But Rodolfo Castro walked in the eighth and eventually scored the game's only run in a 1-0 Pirates win. The Reds failed to counter with a run in the top of the ninth inning, meaning the Pirates didn't need to take the plate in the bottom half.

Fielder's choice secures unlikely win for Pirates
Greene took the mound for the eighth inning with a no-hitter intact. He induced a groundout from Jack Suwinski to start the inning. He then walked Castro with one out and issued another walk to Michael Perez to leave runners at first and second with one out.

Reliever Art Warren replaced Greene after the back-to-back walks and proceeded to issue a walk to Ben Gamel to load the bases. Ke'Bryan Hayes then grounded out to second base, but the Reds couldn't turn the double play, allowing Castro to score the game's only run on a fielder's choice.
