Biographical Information[edit]
Pitcher Tommy Nance was undrafted coming out of college and began his professional career in the independent Frontier League, with the Windy City Thunderbolts. After the season, he was signed as a free agent by the Chicago Cubs.
He was already 30 years old when he made his major league debut with the Cubs in 2021. It came two weeks after he had taken part in a combined no-hitter for the Iowa Cubs against the Indianapolis Indians in the Triple-A East league on May 9th, in a game started by veteran major leaguer Shelby Miller. It was the first minor league no-hitter in over a year, as the minor leagues had been shut down for all of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
