Bosio was the second pitcher in Mariners' history to pitch a no-hitter on April 22, 1993, against the Boston Red Sox. He retired 27 straight batters after walking the first two. The dramatic last out was made when shortstop Omar Vizquel bare-handed a high chopper over the mound by Ernest Riles and threw him out. It stood as the last no-hitter in Mariners history until the team's six-pitcher effort against the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 8, 2012, as well as the last no hitter a single Mariners pitcher threw until Félix Hernández's perfect game on August 15 of the same year. It also stands as the last time the Red Sox were no-hit.
