Blue Jays' prospect T.J. Zeuch throws no-hitter for Triple-A Buffalo image

The Toronto Blue Jays pipeline just continues to grow brighter and brighter.

Playing for Toronto's minor-league affiliate Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, pitching prospect T.J. Zeuch threw a no-hitter en route to a 3-0 victory over the Rochester Red Wings on Monday. It's the second no-hitter in the franchise's modern era history, last having been accomplished in 1997 by Bartolo Colon.

In nine innings pitched Monday, the 24-year-old allowed just one walk and recorded three strikeouts for the Bisons. He also registered 15 groundouts, while also getting help from his teammates; in the ninth inning, Jonathan Davis made an incredible diving grab to keep the no-hitter going.

Zeuch went 21st overall to the Blue Jays back in the 2016 draft and is their 17th best prospect, as per MLB.com's pipeline rankings.

In 10 games this season with Triple-A Buffalo, the 6-7 right-hander is 3-2 with a 4.42 ERA and 32 strikeouts.
