It’s time to proclaim 2021 the Year of the No-Hitter.
At the beginning of April, Joe Musgrove graced us with an electric performance versus the Rangers. Just five days later, Carlos Rodón announced his resurgence by shutting down Cleveland. John Means then tossed a near-perfect game against the Mariners, and Wade Miley followed in Rodón’s footsteps, handing Cleveland another no-hit night. That brings us to yesterday, when Spencer Turnbull became the latest pitcher to go the distance, striking out nine Mariners while allowing just two baserunners via a pair of walks.
That’s an almost unfathomable five no-hitters – and we’re still in the month of May. Since 1901, the only other season with at least five such games before June was 1917, a year that falls in major league baseball’s Dead Ball era.

Hack Wilson led in
17 in 1930; Heinie Zimmerman (1912) and Rogers Hornsby (1929), in 16; Derrek Lee (2005), in 14; and Billy Williams (1972) in 13.

Ernie Banks led in WAR (10.2) and defensive WAR (3.5) in 1959, when he was voted Most Valuable Player for the second straight season. But he was only third in offensive WAR (7.8), trailing Hank Aaron (9.1) and Eddie Mathews (8.4).
How many runs make Cubs likely to win? By JohnW53 on Feb 28, 2021, 6:00am CST +
During the entire Modern Era, 1901-2021, the answer is:
4.
5.
.284 and that doesn t include games when they were shut out.
When they tallied 1-3 runs, they lost more than
3,000 more games than they won, 5,184 to 2,039. They tied 48.
When they scored exactly 4 runs, however they have a winning percentage of
.550 through all 120 seasons, including
.530 in the Live Ball Era, which began in 1920.
But that percentage is just
.501 in 1980-2020, down sharply from
.574 in 1901-79.

The Cubs were below .500 when scoring exactly 4 runs in only one decade from the 1900s through the 1970s: .455 in the 1950s (90-108-2).
