Padres pitchers flirted with no-hiters in back to back games. Sunday, Smith goes into the 6th with a no-hitter. Monday, Cashner goes into the 7th with a perfect game.
Interesting note on Cashner's game last night: Pitching a complete game while facing the minimum number of batters happens less often than no-hitters and a pitcher can not lose a game doing that. Pitchers can lose no-hit games.
Padres have never pitched a no hitter and no team has been no hit more than the Padres during their time in MLB.
If every hitter we faced hit .250 and hits were totally random. You would expect a no-hitter every 2,362 games.
If every hitter we faced hit .260 and hits were totally random. You would expect a no-hitter every 3,394 games.
The Padres have played 7,270 games.
No hitters pitched and hit, by team, since the Padres entered MLB in 1969
