1994 Scott Erickson, who allowed the most hits in the majors last season, pitches the Twins' first no-hitter in 27 years, beating the Brewers at the Metrodome, 6-0. In 1967, Dean Chance no-hit the Indians, but the right-hander allowed a run in Minnesota's 2-1 victory in the nightcap of the twin bill at Cleveland Stadium.
2002 Derek Lowe becomes the first pitcher to throw a no-hit game at Boston's Fenway Park since Dave Morehead accomplished the feat against the Indians in 1965. Facing 28 batters, the former Red Sox closer throws only 97 pitches in the 10-0 rout of the Devil Rays.
2008 At Progressive Field, the longest current consecutive-game streak in the big leagues ends at 382 when Grady Sizemore does not appear in Cleveland's 1-0 loss to the Yankees due to a sprained right ankle sustained yesterday. The center fielder's streak is the most by an Indian player since Toby Harrah played in 473 straight contests from 1979 to 1983.
2010 With the help of a five-run ninth inning fueled by Ryan Doumit's grand slam and Ronny Cedeno's solo shot off Trevor Hoffman, the Pirates snap a 22-game losing streak in Milwaukee with a 7-3 comeback victory over the Brewers at Miller Park. The Brew Crew's hometown hex over the Bucs was the longest-held by one team over another since the Browns/Orioles lost 27 consecutive contests to the Indians in Cleveland from 1952 to 1954.
