Nolan Ryan holds the MLB record for most no-hitters with seven

This is a list of no-hitters in Major League Baseball history. In addition, all no-hitters that were broken up in extra innings or were in shortened games are listed, although they are not currently considered official no-hitters. (Prior to 1991, a performance in which no hits were surrendered through nine innings or in a shortened game was considered an official no-hit game.) The names of those pitchers who threw perfect games are in bold type. For combined no-hitters by two or more pitchers on the same team, each is listed with his number of innings pitched. Games which were part of a doubleheader are noted as either the first game or second game.

An official no-hit game occurs when a pitcher (or pitchers) allows no hits during the entire course of a game, which consists of at least nine innings thrown by the pitcher(s). In a no-hit game, a batter may still reach base via a walk, an error, a fielder's choice, a hit by pitch, a passed ball or wild pitch on strike three, or catcher's interference.[1] Therefore, the games listed in the Near no-hitters section do not officially qualify as no-hitters by MLB rule. Also, due to these methods of reaching base, it is possible for a team to score runs without getting any hits. While the vast majority of no-hitters are shutouts, no-hit teams have managed to score runs in their respective games a number of times, but only twice has a team been no-hit and still won the game. The Cincinnati Reds defeated the Houston Colt .45s (now called the Houston Astros) 1-0 on April 23, 1964 even though they were no-hit by Houston starter Ken Johnson, and the Detroit Tigers defeated the Baltimore Orioles 2-1 on April 30, 1967 even though they were no-hit by Baltimore starter Steve Barber and reliever Stu Miller.

To date, there have been 274 no-hitters thrown, 231 being in the modern era (since 1900). Joe Borden's no-hitter in 1875 is also noted, but is not recognized by Major League Baseball (see note in the chart).

  140. ^ Garza faced the minimum 27 batters (only baserunner allowed was retired on a double play). Opposing starter Max Scherzer threw 5+23 no-hit innings.

Game televised nationally on ESPN.
  141. ^ Game 1 of the 2010 NLDS. Second no-hitter in postseason history, after Don Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series. Halladay became the fifth pitcher to pitch two no-hitters in the same year, and the first one to do it with a perfect game. One batter reached base.

  144. ^ Perfect game and Humber's first career complete game

Near no-hitters

Regulation games in which a pitcher or staff pitches less than nine full innings, or in which a hit is allowed in extra innings, do not qualify as no-hitters. There are several circumstances in which that can occur:

Regulation no-hit losses ending in the middle of the ninth

Due to the fact that the home team does not bat in the bottom of the ninth inning if they are leading after the top, a visiting pitcher (or pitchers) may complete a full game without allowing a hit but not be credited with an official no-hitter. If the visiting team allows a sufficient amount of runs for the home team to win after the top of the ninth, whether by walks, errors, or anything else not involving hits, the pitcher(s) will not be credited because they only pitched 8 innings. This has happened only four times in major-league history.[9][10]
