Amos Rusie threw the team’s first no-hitter in 1891, and Christy Mathewson (New York) and Tim Lincecum (San Francisco) are the only two Giants to throw two no-hitters each. Both of Lincecum’s have come against the San Diego Padres, making him the first major league pitcher to no-hit the same team twice since the Cleveland Naps’ Addie Joss did it in 1908 and 1910 against the Chicago White Sox.
Matt Cain threw the Giants’ only perfect game on June 13, 2012, against the Houston Astros.

@StevePoliti Yep, finally updated the page http://t.co/rvuc9cUJNV … I take one Mets game off to go out and socialize, and this happens!
Heston’s No Hitter was on June 9 2015, not June 25 2014 as reported above in your list of SF Giants no hitters.
Thanks. The date was inadvertently duplicated from the Lincecum no-no. It’s fixed now.
