“The controversial former major leaguer, who is now calling suburban Long Island his baseball home, threw a seven-inning no-hitter on Sunday for the Long Island Ducks in his second start for the independent league ballclub that plays in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball.”

“After the 13-0 win over the Lancaster Stormers, Bauer took to social media. “Trevor Bauer sucks so much. He’s so washed,” he posted on his popular X account, @BauerOutage.”

“Bauer allowed just one walk while striking out seven batters on 84 pitches in the abbreviated game and became just the third player in Ducks history to throw a no-hitter.”

“Rod Henderson became the first to do so on May 25, 2001, against the now-defunct Atlantic City Surf and Robert Stock accomplished the feat against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs on July 18, 2023.”

“The 35-year-old former Cy Young Award winner had been coming off an opening day start last week that marked his first start in the U.S. in nearly five years.”

“Bauer has been trying to make a major league comeback after he was suspended for 194 games in 2022 over sexual assault allegations, which he vehemently denies and was never criminally charged for.”

“He has spent time playing professionally in Mexico and Japan, though no MLB team has taken a chance on bringing him back to the big leagues in the United States.”

““I didn’t hear any negative comments. There was no protests,” Bauer said in the vlog titled, “I Joined My New Team In New York.” “Nothing blew up. There was no meteor that hit the stadium. Apparently, those fears have been massively overstated, I think. Imagine that I can pitch in America and not have massive protests and get cancelled and whatever else.””
