Francis (8-3) picked up the win over the Red Sox on Thursday, allowing one hit and zero walks over seven shutout innings while striking out five.
Francis had a no-hitter going into the sixth inning when he gave up a single to Nick Sogard with one out in the frame. The right-hander would then retire the final five batters he faced in the contest before being relieved by Genesis Cabrera to open the eighth. Francis took a no-hitter into the ninth in his previous start, and he's now hurled at least seven innings of one-run ball in each of his last four outings, recording the win in all of them with a robust 32:3 K:BB.
