This is the only no-hitter in MLB history in which the only baserunner reached on a dropped third strike. A little like the 1917 Ernie Shore game: Boston starting pitcher Babe Ruth became agitated after walking Ray Morgan, Washington’s leadoff hitter; Ruth then confronted umpire Brick Owens about balls and strikes, suffering a swift ejection; Shore entered the game; and, after Morgan was caught stealing on the first pitch, Shore retired the next 26 batters consecutively, resulting in what would, for many years, be considered a perfect game. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the Orioles hitters. I should have made that clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrungoHazewood Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 First solo no hitter by an Oriole in my nearly 50 years and it has to be a weird afternoon game where I have to take the kids to soccer. Missed the whole thing, but awesome job by Means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good and just missed out on a 100 game score which has only happened 16 times in a nine inning game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_score Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashLumber Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Maybe it's been posted, but according to Elias, this is the first time in MLB history that a pitcher has thrown a no-hitter with no walks, no HBPs or no errors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveA Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 First solo no hitter for the Orioles since Palmer in '69. Just the 4th ever (Wilhelm, Phoebus, Palmer, Means). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadnought Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 As an out-of-state fan who goes back, I saw Phoebus pitch the no-hitter on TV vs. Boston; listened to the Palmer game on the radio while on family vacation somewhere in the U.S.; did not have access to the combined no-hitter because it was pre-internet. I believe 1991 was a day game(subject to correction), so out-of-state radio was not available. Today was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
