When the Philadelphia Phillies signed Zack Wheeler away from their National League East rivals, the New York Mets, ahead of the 2020 campaign, a lot of eyebrows were raised.

In an absolute gem of an outing, Wheeler tossed a complete game one-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds, striking out 12 while walking none. The sole hit given up was a solo shot by Austin Hays. He lowered his ERA to 2.17 in the process, the second-lowest mark in the National League behind Paul Skenes.

Zack Wheeler threw a one-hitter for his first complete game since 2021 in the Philadelphia Phillies’ 3-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.
