Nick Hagadone pitched in the farm systems of the Boston Red Sox and the Cleveland Indians from 2007 to 2010, then made his major league debut with the Indians in 2011.
While in college at the University of Washington, Hagadone pitched the final three innings of a nine-inning 9-0 no-hitter against Santa Clara University. The first six innings were pitched by Tim Lincecum.
Nick was a supplemental first round draft pick of the Red Sox in the 2007 Amateur Draft (55th overall). He was signed by scout John Booher and began his career with the Lowell Spinners in 2007.
On July 31, 2009, Hagadone, Bryan Price, and Justin Masterson were traded to the Indians for Víctor Martínez. He was roughed in his major league debut, two years and a month later, facing the Oakland A's on September 1, 2011. Coming on in relief of Fausto Carmona, he gave up two hits, a walk and three earned runs and uncorked a wild pitch in 1 2/3 innings, then was replaced by Corey Kluber, who was also making his major league debut; the Indians lost, 7-0.
