Will there be a no-hitter, hit-for-the-cycle, or immaculate inning before the end of July?
91% of users predicted NO — the community missed this one. 34 predictions cast.
The question resolved yes after Cleveland Guardians right-hander Gavin Williams struck out the side on nine pitches in the fourth inning against the Minnesota Twins on July 23, 2026, recording an immaculate inning. Williams retired Byron Buxton, Ryan Jeffers and Josh Bell in order, each on three pitches, and finished the outing with 11 strikeouts over seven innings while allowing two hits.
The feat was the first immaculate inning by a Guardians pitcher since 2022 and the fifth in franchise history. It was also the second immaculate inning thrown in MLB this season, following Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Michael Soroka's against Detroit on March 30, 2026.
No no-hitter or hit-for-the-cycle occurred during the remainder of July, so Williams' immaculate inning was the sole qualifying event that triggered resolution.
The Predict Six community badly missed this one: only 9% of voters bet yes, with 91% betting against any of the three rare feats occurring before the end of the month. The result was a reminder that immaculate innings, while uncommon, happen more often across a full month of MLB play than bettors tend to price in — this was the league's second one in four months.
