You’re missing the July 1, 1990 NYY v White Sox game at Comiskey – Andy Hawkins no-hit the Sox, but lost 4-0 due to errors and walks in the 8th inning
Not missing it. It’s not an official no-hitter It’s listed on our unofficial no-nos page.
Exactly. However that no-hitter is NOT a no- hitter anymore, due to some genius who decided,several years ago, that no-hitters less than 9 innings are no longer consider.
What a crock!!!!
Thanks Dirk… Wasn’t aware of the change in definition – apparently Fay Vincent needed something to do in 1991 🙂
I completely understand and agree with eliminating the rain delay / darkness shortened games, and the no-no’s lost in extra innings. While I understand the rationale behind the “8.5” inning (home team not batting bottom of 9) games, I just think that eliminating those game unfairly penalizes the visiting pitcher. I’ll grant you, it’s certainly an anomalous situation, but I believe that it qualifies as a complete game and, as such, the pitcher deserves the no-no credit. I was at the Hawkins game and it is definitely among the strangest games that I’ve personally witnessed…
Thanks for the clarification / education… just an old catcher passing on an opinion…
I devote a chapter to that game and the debate over the eliminated no-hitters in my upcoming book Baseball’s No-hit Wonders. I interviewed Hawkins last month when the Rangers were at Fenway and asked him if he felt he deserved a no-hitter. His response was, “I didn’t give up any hits.” A valid point.
Very cool – will definitely be looking for your book. I’m a life-long, die-hard (especially this season) White Sox fan, and I absolutely agree with Hawkins (he threw a no-hitter)… thanks again Dirk
Thanks, Mike … I just watched the video of that ninth inning yesterday. I’ve never seen anything like it since. (Except maybe that time the Mets’ Luis Castillo dropped that pop-up against the Yanks).
You’re most welcome Dirk – very cool (and well done) website…
Have a great evening!
Thanks, you too!
