Candlestick Park, the home to the San Francisco Giants from 1960-1999, hosted six no-hitters during its history, which also included the names Harney Stadium and 3Com Park at Candlestick Point.
The great Juan Marichal tossed the ballpark’s first no-no, and Candlestick Park also hosted consecutive-day revenge no-nos in 1968 by the Giants’ Gaylord Perry and the St. Louis Cardinals’ Ray Washburn.
