- Only sixth time since 1901 MLB team has won with no hits
- Not an official no-hitter as pitchers didn’t go nine innings
- Pirates eke out 1-0 win after run-scoring forceout
Reds starter Hunter Greene and reliever Art Warren combined to allow zero hits in a complete game, but it didn’t count as a no-hitter – or even a win – because the Pittsburgh Pirates eked out a run in the bottom of the eighth inning for a 1-0 win Sunday.
This was the sixth time in big league history since 1901 that a team has won despite not getting any hits. It last happened in 2008 when Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo of the Angels lost while holding the Dodgers hitless.
