it has (surprisingly) been quite a long time since the pirates were no-hit, though i don't remember the date

The MLB guy said not since Gibson in the '70s.

YCPB @cantpredictballThe Pirates actually haven't been no-hit since 1971.

Shelby one upped Harvey. 98 vs 97 for the game score.

if i calculated correctly, his game score was 98.

He retired 27 in a row in one game, how many times has that happened? (Ernie Shore and ... ?)
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Saturday, 11 May 2013 08:10 (ten years ago) link
but he was never "doing really well" ;)

Miller is only the second pitcher in the last 31 seasons to allow the first batter to reach base, then retire every hitter after that for a nine-inning complete-game win, joining John Lackey (2006 Angels against the Oakland Athletics).
― ballin' from Maine to Mexico (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 11 May 2013 14:34 (ten years ago) link
Lester's one-hitter against the Toronto Mud Hens last night had a game score of 90. So Cain (101)/Dickey(95) on June 13 of last year beat Miller (98)/Lester (90) by...8 game scores, or whatever. (They also win in hits allowed, 1-2).

interesting. i'm more curious about why pitching is getting so much better than what it means for defense.
