Which pitcher who played in the Major Leagues in 2022 threw a no-hitter in his first Big League start?

I know this just happened recently. I'll say Spencer Turnbull DET.

Nope.

Turnbull pitched a no-hitter in 2021, but his first Major League start was in 2018, and he didn't pitch anywhere in 2022, (rehabbing from Tommy John surgery).

I knew what you were looking for had to be a movie starring Jim Brown as he appeared in quite a few 70's films. Haven't seen that one.
