Miami Marlins' Edinson Volquez Throws No-Hitter on His Late Friend Yordano Ventura's Birthday

Edinson Volquez and Yordano Ventura were teammates with the Kansas City Royals.

Ventura died on January 22 of this year after he was ejected from his vehicle during a one-car accident.

Saturday would’ve been Ventura’s 26th birthday and Volquez honored him by throwing a no-hitter against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
