Batting Average Leader in 1999?
Yes. Three (or 4) times.On April 23, 1967, Ken Johnson of the Houston Colt .45s lost 1-0 to St. Louis despite pitching a no-hitter. Only allowing 2 walks in the game, an error in the top of the 9th lead to the games only run, his team couldn't score for him in the bottom of the 9th. This is the only time a pitcher has lost in a 9 inning no hitter.
On July 1st, 1990, Andy Hawkins of the Yankees lost 4-0 to the White Sox. He went 8 no-hit innings, but 5 walks and 3 errors behind him cost him.
On April 12, 1992, Matt Young of the Boston Red Sox lost 2-1 to the Cleveland Indians. He no hit the tribe, but walked 7 batters and an error behind him cost him the victory.
The fourth is a combined no hitter, on April 30, 1967, Steve Barber (8.2ip) and Stu Miller (0.1ip) of Baltimore combined to no hit the Detroit Tigers, but managed to lose the game 2-1 on the strength of 10 walks by Barber and two errors behind him
Its worth noting that the first counts as an official no hitter, but in the case of Young and Hawkins, they only went 8 innings, and not the 9 required for an official no hitter. The combined no hitter counts as well.
Box scores are my source:
no, never.
Actually yes it has happened! Twice. On April 23 1964 and July 1 1990. And it still counts as a no hitter even though the pitcher got the loss. They did change the rule though so that the pitcher had to go a full 9 innings and in one case he did because he was the visiting team and the home team actually didnt have to bat in the 9th.
Has baseball ever had a quadruple crown winner, hitter?
yes matt young did it for the boston red sox in the late 80's or early 90's. keep in mind its not actually a no-hitter you have to win the game to earn that credit, but the other team scored more runs do to walks and errors, a no hitter is not a perfect gameWhat are all the teams NOMAR GARCIAPARRA played on??
I believe Sterling Hitchcock was the last one to throw a no hitter and lose. A couple of batters reached on errors and walked. I think he lost like 4-0 against Cleveland in the early to mid 90's.10 easy points...Which pitcher will have the most strikeouts tonight?
It's happened many times.Is it rare if I throw left handed and bat left handed?
You got the straight dope from Mekounk. Ken Johnson is the only one that went a 9-inning complete game and lost. It also (1967) is the only year the team was known as the Colt 45's.There have been a couple that went 10-innings and the pitcher lost and even Harvey Haddix pitched 12 perfect innings only to lose in the 13th.
