Atlanta Braves right-hander Charlie Morton became the 22nd pitcher in MLB history to earn a win against all 30 teams.
Morton allowed only three hits with seven strikeouts across 6 1/3 scoreless innings in Friday's 6-1 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The 40-year-old spent the first seven seasons of his MLB career with the Pirates. He had only made one previous start against Pittsburgh, earning a no decision on June 11, 2022.
Morton said postgame that it was "special" to accomplish the feat against the Pirates, per Bally Sports.
Justin Verlander was the last pitcher to earn a victory against all 30 MLB clubs when he defeated the Cincinnati Reds as a member of the New York Mets in May 2023.
