******************* Has any pitcher ever pitched a no hitter and lost the game? Has any pitcher ever pitched a perfect game for nine innings and not gotten the win?

I cant remember his name right-offhand, but there was a guy back in the 60s for the Pirates...he pitched, I believe a perfect game for over 9 innings (10 or so) but they still lost in the late innings 1-0. Ill check on it, but Im sure by the time I do, someone else on the net will have suuplied this answer.

A number of pitchers have pitched no-hitters and lost the game due to unearned runs, or runs walked in. Harvey Haddix pitched a 12-inning perfect game, but lost in the 13th, 1-0. Sorry, but I forget the date. I believe the opponent was the Milwaukee Braves. He was pitching for Pittsburgh.

I don't remember all the details, but here goes ... Pittsburgh Pirates vs. the Milwaukee Braves, sometime during the summer of 1959. The game must have been played in Milwaukee, since the Braves won it in the bottom of the thirteenth. Harvey Haddix pitched twelve perfect innings, losing the perfect game in the bottom of the thirteenth when Don Hoak, a golden-glove-caliber third baseman for the Pirates, committed an error. The next batter (Eddie Mathews, I believe) won the game for the Braves with a book-rule double. There was something about Mathews originally being credited with a home run. If a book-rule double won the game for Milwaukee, then Hoak must have committed a two-base (throwing?) error. Also, as I recall, Bob Skinner, the Pittsburgh left fielder, hit a ball in the fifth or sixth inning that would have been a home run had the wind not been blowing in. Anyone remember who was pitching for Milwaukee? That would have been during the Spahn era, no? --- Phil Pfeiffer
