Nova looked great tonight in his No-Hitter (6 innings) against the O’s. He looked much sharper than his previous start in Dunedin against the Jays, when he was pulled after three innings with 62 pitches. Nova kept the ball up in the zone that game but tonight his fastball looked great with some nice movement diving down at about 91mph. He had a nice rhythm going as he went deeper in the game and never was behind in any count. His total pitch count was a very conservative 59 pitches and he worked fast. It makes it very difficult to deny the 5th Spot for Nova after a performance like tonight.
