In early May of 2018, the San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers met for a 3-game Series at Estadio de Beisbol in Monterrey, Mexico - MLB's first slate of regular season games in Mexico in almost 20 years. The series started off in memorable fashion with the Dodgers throwing a combined no-hitter, the first ever in international play. The Padres' bats came alive in the final two games, winning both contests and the series at large.
Four Dodgers' pitchers - Walker Buehler, Tony Cingrani, Yimi Garcia and Adam Liberatore - combined to throw the 23rd no-hitter in team history as they beat the Padres in the series opener.
After being no-hit in the first game of the series, the Padres started the second game with a bang. A leadoff triple by Travis Jankowski followed by an Eric Hosmer home run gave the Padres and early lead.
A pair of Erics secured the series win for the Padres during Sunday's finale. Eric Lauer threw six scoreless innings against the Dodgers to earn the first Win of his career and Eric Hosmer homered.
The 2025 MLB regular season began with the the Tokyo Series presented by Guggenheim at the Tokyo Dome, featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday, March 18 and Wednesday, March 19.
