No-hitter facts, figures and oddities
無安打比賽的三兩事
With the Cubs holding the Astros hitless for 15 consecutive innings over
two games on Sunday and Monday, here is a look at some other exceptional
and rare no-hit feats in baseball history.
當小熊讓太空人在星期六日連續兩場比賽當中連續15局沒有擊出安打，也來看看
MLB史上一些關於無安打比賽特殊稀有的記錄。
‧ Johnny Vander Meer is the only pitcher in Major League history to
throw no-hitters in consecutive appearances. The Reds left-hander threw
his first vs. the Boston Bees on June 11, 1938, then followed it up on
June 15 with another no-no vs. the Brooklyn Dodgers. Including his two
starts before and after the no-hitters, Vander Meer pitched a total of
21 1/3 no-hit innings over four games.
Johnny Vander Meer是MLB史上唯一一位連續兩場先發都投出無安打的投手。這位
紅人左投在1938/06/11對波士頓蜜蜂投出第一場，然後在6/15對布魯克林道奇投出
第二場。包括兩場無安打比賽的前後各一次先發，Vander Meer在這4場中投出連續
21 1/3局的無安打。
‧ Though no team in history has tossed a no-hitter in consecutive games,
the feat has been done in consecutive days. On May 5, 1917, Ernie Koob
of the St. Louis Browns threw a no-hitter against the Chicago White Sox,
winning 1-0. The next day, in the second game of a doubleheader, teammate
Bob Groom did the same thing, winning 3-0.
雖然沒有任何一隻球隊曾經連續兩場比賽投出無安打，但是連續兩天卻是有的。
1917/05/05，聖路易布朗的Ernie Koob對芝加哥白襪投出無安打，以1比0穫勝。
隔天，在雙重賽的第二場，隊友Bob Groom也來一場3比0的無安打。
‧ According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the last time a team pitched or
succumbed to a streak of 15 consecutive no-hit innings was June 2-3, 1995,
when the Expos held the Padres without a hit for that span. On Sept. 25-27,
1981, the Astros held the Dodgers without a hit for 16 consecutive innings.
根據Elias Sports Bureau的統計，上一次有隊伍投出或者打線連續15局無安打是
1995/7/2~3，博覽會讓海盜在這段時間半隻安打也擠不出來。在1981/09/25~27，
太空人使道奇連續16局生不出安打。
‧ Cy Young holds the Major League record with 23 consecutive scoreless
innings pitched, although some sources list this streak to be as high as
25 1/3 innings.
Cy Young保有連續23局無安打(原文寫無失分，相信是筆誤)的MLB記錄，儘管有些地方
認為應該是25 1/3局。
‧ Cincinnati's Ewell Blackwell nearly matched Vander Meer's feat in 1947.
He threw a no-hitter vs. the Boston Braves on June 18, then fell two outs
shy of duplicating that effort vs. Brooklyn four days later.
紅人的Ewell Blackwell在1947年幾乎完成跟Vander Meer相同的連續兩場無安打。他
在6/18對波士頓勇士投出無安打，然後在4天後對布魯克林僅差2個出局數就可以再來
一場。
‧ In September 1968, no-hitters were thrown in back-to-back games during
a series between two teams. On Sept. 17, Gaylord Perry of the Giants no-hit
the Cardinals, 1-0, at Candlestick Park. On the following day, Ray Washburn
duplicated the feat for the Cardinals with his 2-0 win over the Giants.
在1968年9月，無安打比賽在兩隻隊伍的系列戰當中連續出現。9/17時，巨人的
Gaylord Perry在Candlestick Park送給紅雀1比0的無安打。隔天，紅雀Ray Washburn
也禮尚往來地回給巨人一場2比0無安打。
‧ In 1969, Houston and Cincinnati traded no-hitters on consecutive days:
on April 30, Jim Maloney of Cincy no-hit Houston and won 10-0; the next
day, Don Wilson of Houston no-hit the Reds and won 4-0.
在1969年，太空人和紅人在兩天內互相送給對方一場無安打。4/30，紅人Jim Maloney
給了太空人一個10比0的no-no。隔天，太空人Don Wilson馬上還一個4比0的。
‧ On June 29, 1990 two no-hitters were thrown within hours of each other.
Dave Stewart of the A's pitched a no-hitter in Toronto against the Blue
Jays. Later in the day, the Dodgers' Fernando Valenzuela pitched a
no-hitter at home against the St. Louis Cardinals.
1990/06/29，幾小時之內出現2場無安打。運動家Dave Stewart在客場對藍鳥投出
無安打。當天稍晚，道奇的Fernando Valenzuela在主場對紅雀也投出無安打。
‧ The Yankees' Don Larsen became the first to throw a no-hitter in the
World Series with his Game 5 gem vs. the Dodgers in 1956. He remains the
only pitcher to record a no-no in the postseason.
洋基的Don Larsen在1956年世界大賽第5戰對道奇成為第一位在世界大賽投出無安打
的投手。目前也是在季後賽唯一投出no-no的投手。
‧ The only Opening Day no-hitter in baseball history took place on April
16, 1940, when Indians Hall of Famer Bob Feller shut down the White Sox.
唯一一場在開幕日出現的無安打比賽發生在1940/04/16，印地安人的名人堂投手
Bob Feller完全封鎖白襪。
‧ In 1953, Bobo Holloman of the St. Louis Browns pitched a no-hitter in
his first Major League start.
1953年，聖路易布朗的Bobo Holloman在大聯盟首度先發就投出無安打。
‧ Bob Forsch and Ken Forsch are the only pair of brothers to both pitch
official no-hitters. Bob pitched two no-hitters while with the Cardinals,
the first in 1978 and the second in 1983. Ken pitched one for the Astros
in 1979. Brothers Pascual Pérez and Melido Pérez both pitched
rain-shortened, unofficial no-hitters; Pascual for five innings for the
1988 Expos and Melido for six innings for the 1990 White Sox.
Bob Forsch和Ken Forsch是唯一一對兩人都曾投出正式無安打比賽的兄弟檔。Bob在
紅雀分別於1978和1983年投出無安打，Ken則是於1979年在太空人投出。
Pascual Perez和Melido Perez兄弟則都曾投過因雨提前結束的非正式無安打比賽。
Pascual 1988年為博覽會投了場5局的無安打，Melido在1990年為白襪投了場6局的。
‧ Boston's Jason Varitek has caught four no-hitters, the most of any
catcher: Hideo Nomo (2001), Derek Lowe (2002), rookie Clay Buchholz (2007)
and Jon Lester (2008).
紅襪的Jason Varitek蹲了4場無安打，為捕手史上最多。投手分別為2001的野茂英雄、
2002的Derek Lowe、2007的菜鳥Clay Buchholz和2008的Jon Lester。
‧ Boston's Babe Ruth and Ernie Shore combined for one of the more
unconventional no-hitters in baseball history in the first game of a
doubleheader on June 23, 1917. Ruth walked the leadoff batter, then was
promtly ejected for arguing balls and strikes. Shore came in to replace
him, watched his catcher throw out the runner on an attempted steal, then
retired the next 26 batters.
波士頓的Babe Ruth和Ernie Shore聯手演出了棒球史上非傳統意義的無安打比賽當中
的一場。在1917/06/23雙方賽的第一場比賽，Ruth保送了第一位打者，然後馬上因為
跟主審爭辯好壞球被驅逐出場。Shores上場接替投球後，捕手先是抓掉想要盜壘的跑
者，然後Shore解決接下來的26位打者。 ( @O@ 好厲害啊 )
‧ Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan holds the Major League record with seven
no-hitters. The first came in 1973 during his tenure with the Angels, and
the last took place in 1991, when he was a 44-year-old with the Rangers.
名人堂的Nolan Ryan保有領先大聯盟的7場無安打。第一場是1973年在天使時，最後
一場則是1991年以高齡44歲在遊騎兵投出。 (是最高齡的無安打嗎?)
