What's a no hitter in baseball?

Question

I'm not a baseball enthusiast so please give the simplest explanation please.

Answer 1

A no-hitter is a baseball game in which the pitcher does nt alow a hit. This does not mean the other team can't score because the pitcher can still walk men (or for softball women) and they can steal bases and move ahead on wild pitches to score.Also the batter can hit the ball and the feilder can comit an error and the play would not be ruled as a hit. A perfect game is when a pitcher does not alow a hit error run or walk. Hope this helps.

Answer 13

When a pitcher doesn't allow any hits in a game and also has to complete the whole game.

Answer 14

When a single pitcher pitches a whole game and doesnt give up a hit, but the pitcher can give up walks then thats a no hitter... if he doesnt walk anybody and doesnt let anyone get a hit it a perfect game. But in both of those if the fielder makes an error that doesnt take away a no hitter or a perfect game.

Answer 15

When a pitcher pitches a complete game (9 IP) shutout Without allowing a hit to hitting side, its considered a complete game, Jon Lester has pitched one this season.
