Hancock's incredible outing drew comparisons to Diamondbacks legend Randy Johnson from opposing pitcher Seth Lugo, who quipped, 'After the fifth inning, I asked the umpire if they'd brought Randy Johnson back out of retirement.' The performance came on Johnson's jersey retirement night, with Hancock becoming the fourth player in Mariners franchise history to record 14+ strikeouts with no walks, matching a feat Johnson accomplished twice.
