Trevor Williams of the Washington Nationals delivered an exceptional performance on Wednesday night, pitching five scoreless innings despite facing significant challenges, including escaping two bases-loaded, no-out jams. He threw a total of 79 pitches through these innings. The Nationals' bullpen, consisting of four relievers, helped secure the shutout. The only run of the game was driven in by Alex Call, leading to a 1-0 victory over the Texas Rangers.

Over the last 50 seasons (since 1975), there have been 21,395 scoreless outings by MLB starters (reg & post, including Wednesday). Only one of those 21,395 did so while facing a bases-loaded, no-out jam in 2 separate innings. That one was the @Nationals' Trevor Williams today. https://t.co/kfQxG3XGZ6

Trevor Williams just turned in one of the most hilarious stars I’ve ever seen. 5 scoreless despite double-digit base runners. Got out of two ‘bases loaded, no out’ jams without a run.
Trevor Williams apparently enjoys flirting with disaster. For the second time tonight, he loaded the bases with nobody out and escaped unscathed. He's through 5 scoreless on 79 pitches, Nats up 1-0.
