The Rays have advanced only one runner past first base.
This is Kremer’s first start since Aug. 31, when he was struck in the arm by a comebacker in a game against Colorado. He has thrown 81 pitches, 54 for strikes, through six innings.
Tampa Bay starter Shane Baz is also sharp on the mound -- the only hit he has allowed was a fourth-inning single to Gunnar Henderson. The game’s lone run was unearned, on a fifth-inning sacrifice fly by Holliday following a throwing error by catcher Ben Rortvedt.
There have been four no-hitters this season, the last on Wednesday by the Chicago Cubs, who used three pitchers to complete the feat.
