Question which pitcher had the fewest starts in majors before notching his first no-hitter? Also, while i'm asking who had the most starts under his belt before pitching a no-hitter?
Answer Hi Mark,
Thanks for writing.
Three pitchers have pitched no-hitters in their very first start: Bobo Holloman, Bumpus Jones and Ted Breitenstein. Of the three, Jones is the only pitcher to pitch a no-hitter in his very first game.
Don't know who had the most starts before finally throwing a no-hitter, and for obvious reasons, don't want to spend the time right now to try to find out. :)
