Leading the Way
Fenway Park
Fenway Park, where 13 no-hitters have been thrown in its illustrious 100-year history.


Golden State Gems
Dodger Stadium
Dodger Stadium, along with the stadiums in Anaheim and Oakland, was one of 3 parks built in the 1960s in California that is still used today. The trio has been the site of an impressive 26 no-hitters.


Not Yet
Minute Maid Park
Minute Maid Park, which opened in 2000, is one of 8 ballparks -- and the oldest -- with nary a no-hitter to its credit.


No-No's at Parks That Are
No Mo
Veterans Stadium
There have been 279 no-hitters in baseball history, with the first recognized one thrown on July 15, 1876 and the most recent having been pitched on September 28, 2012. So that means most -- 206, or 73.8% -- were thrown in ballparks that are now history, such as Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia, where the 2nd of its 2 no-hitters was thrown in the Vet's final season (2003).

The current crop of major league ballparks have been the site of a combined 73 no-hitters (10 of which were perfect games). Listed below, in alphabetical order, is each of the 30 MLB ballparks. Only 22 of them (73.3%) have been the site of at least one no-hitter and the oldest, Fenway Park, leads the way with 13. For each park, the year it opened is listed and a tabular summary of the no-hitters thrown in it is given, along with a link to a box score from each individual game (when available).

    7/14/1995 Friday Ramon Martinez Los Angeles Dodgers 7, Florida Marlins 0 30,988 2:21 [box]

    No-Hit Notes for Dodger Stadium:

  • The no-hitters thrown by Sandy Koufax (#3) and Dennis Martinez were also perfect games.
  • Is one of only 3 current ballparks in which multiple perfect games have been thrown.
  • Is the only current ballpark in which one pitcher (Sandy Koufax) has thrown 3 no-hitters.
  • The first no-hitter thrown here was by the American League's Los Angeles Angels, who before they moved to Anaheim spent four seasons (1962-65) as a tenant at what they called Chávez Ravine Stadium. So not only did the first no-hitter not involve the Dodgers, it wasn't even technically thrown at Dodger Stadium.

    No-Hit Notes for Fenway Park:

  • Among active ballparks, Fenway has hosted the shortest (1:31) and longest (3:02) recorded no-hitters plus the worst attended one (1,247).
  • Although a perfect game has never been thrown here, Ernie Shore was originally credited with one after he relieved Babe Ruth in their combined no-hitter on 6/23/1917. In that game, Ruth walked the leadoff batter then was ejected. Shore came in and, after the leadoff man was caught stealing, he retired the next 26 batters. Shore was credited with a perfect game for 74 years -- until 1991, when MLB redefined what constituted a perfect game.

    No-Hit Notes for Miller Park:
  • Has the unusual and unlikely distinction of being the only ballpark that hosted a no-hitter as a neutral site. The Astros were actually the home team in Milwaukee, where two games were relocated to from Houston due to Hurricane Ike.

  • Is one of only 3 current ballparks in which multiple perfect games have been thrown.

    No-Hit Notes for PNC Park:
  • Bailey's no-hitter was doubly historic, for not only was it the first one at PNC Park but it also ensured that the Pirates would not have a winning record for the 20th straight season, a mark of futility never reached before by any major North American professional sports team.

    8/15/2012 Wednesday Felix Hernandez Seattle Mariners 1, Tampa Bay Rays 0 21,889 2:22 [box]

    No-Hit Notes for Safeco Field:
  • The no-hitters thrown by Philip Humber and Felix Hernandez were also perfect games. Of the 23 perfect games thrown in major league history, Humber's occurred the earliest in the year and was only the second ever recorded in April. Ironically, the only other was also thrown by a White Sox pitcher on the road (Charlie Robertson in Detroit on April 30, 1922).
  • Kevin Millwood and five relievers combined to throw the second no-hitter in Safeco Field history. The six pitchers used tied the record for the most needed to throw a no-hitter. With their innings pitched listed in parenthesis, the Mariners pitchers were: Millwood (6), Charlie Furbush (0.2), Stephen Pryor (0.1), Lucas Luetge (0.1), Brandon League (0.2) and Tom Wilhelmsen (1).

    No-Hit Notes for Wrigley Field:

  • Was called Weeghman Park when the first no-hitter was thrown.
  • No-hitters have been thrown twice on August 19 (1965 and 1969). No other current ballpark has had more than one no-hitter thrown on the same date.
  • The Reds are the only visiting team to ever throw a no-hitter at Wrigley and they've done it twice. In a twist of irony both of those games went 10 innings and finished with the same score (1-0). In the first of those games both team's pitchers -- Fred Toney for the Reds and Jim "Hippo" Vaughn for the Cubs -- had a no-hitter through 9 innings.
  • Was the site of the first major league no-hitter thrown by an African-American pitcher (Sam "Toothpick" Jones).

    Citizens Bank Park
    Of the 9 ballparks to open since 2002, Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park is one of only two that has been the site of a no-hitter and that no-hitter was one of the most memorable of all time, as the Phillies' Roy Halladay threw it in Game 1 of a 2010 NLDS playoff series against the Reds.
