Default Re: What\'s the closest you\'ve seen to a no-hitter LIVE.

I saw Randy Johnson pitch a one-hitter against the Reds when he pitched what I remember to be 3 one-hitters in a row. I think he lost all three games too. The Reds pitcher had a no-no into about the 7th, but gave up a hit (only 2 hits for both teams). I think the Reds won 1-0.

My memory of this is pretty far off, and it would have been around 1999-2000 timeframe.

There is no way Johnson pitched 3 straight 1-hitters and lsot all of them. The odds of that are insane.

4/27/02 Derek Lowe no-hits Tampa Bay at Fenway. Three rows behind the Sox dugout. The last MLB game I attended.

I found the games. I was wrong.

6-25-99 - St. Louis vs. Arizona
Jiminez pitches a no-hitter against Johnson (5 hits 1 run Johnson)
6-30-99 - Cincinnati vs. Arizona (2-0)
Villone pitches a 1-hitter against Johnson (7 hits 2 runs)
7-5-99 - St. Louis vs. Arizona
Jiminez pitches a 2-hitter against Johnson (4 hits 1 run)

3 games, 3 hits for his team. Awesome run support.

Len Barker's perfecto at Cleveland Municipal Stadium in 1981.

When I pitched one in little league. Booyah.

That was the peak of my sports career.

I went to something rarer than a perfect game... one lost to the 27th batter:

On September 2, 2001, Mike Mussina of the Yankees gave up a two-strike single to Red Sox pinch-hitter Carl Everett.

Although I am a Sox fan, I was rooting hard for him to get it.

I went to the Randy Johnson Diamondbacks/Braves matchup in '04.

Amazing thing to have seen; I think my dad has the stubs.
