The Baltimore Orioles have been rooted in eastern Maryland since 1953, after the American League’s Browns relocated from St. Louis after 51 seasons. The franchise actually spent its first season (1901) in Milwaukee as the Brewers.
The Orioles have thrown six no-hitters while stationed in Baltimore, with the first coming from the hand of Hall of Famer Hoyt Wilhelm, who tossed a no-no in his third start with the Orioles.
Below are the no-hitters thrown by the Batlimore Orioles. For the no-hitters thrown over the whole franchise’s history, click here. For just the St. Louis Browns’ no-nos, click here.
