Question
Has there ever been a no-hitter where the pitcher fails to record a strike-out?
Fred,
I can only go back to 1956 on this one. During that time, from then to now, there's only been one no-hitter fitting this description:
Ken Holtzman of the Chicago Cubs no hit the Atlanta Braves on August 19, 1969 at Wrigley Field. He struck out none and walked 3.

| Comment | Thank you very much for the quick response! The probability of this occuring is incredible. My friends and I discussed this as one of those cases where it can be considered a "team" no-hitter. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge of the game. | ||
