After making the daring move to come to America from Japan and play in the MLB, Hideo Nomo became a sensation and rookie of the year in 1995. Then just one year later, Hideo Nomo threw what many consider to be the greatest no-hitter ever thrown by completing the feat at Coors Field in 1996. Something that has not been done since in a time where the Rockies had one of the best lineups in the game as the Coors Field effect was at it's peak.

My wife, who is from Japan, and I were having dinner on our first wedding anniversary about four blocks south of Coors Field that night. It was cold, almost snowing. When we left the restaurant to drive home, we found the game on the radio and listened to the call as Nomo completed the no-hitter. Good times!

Absolutely the greatest, most challenging, most unexpected and one of the most underrated, under appreciated achievement in sports history.

@darwinwins 16 дней назад

This is one of the most impressive because this was Coors at the height of the steroid era and before baseballs were kept in a humidor at Denver's altitude.

Randomly saw Nomo at a mall in Hawaii back in the late 90's. I was sitting on a bench, and the first thing that caught my eyes, were two ginormous calves?!! I immediately looked up and saw that it was him. Let me tell you, this dude is built like a linebacker!! On TV his built looks nothing like it does in person... I was impressed!

@goteamdefense 19 дней назад

On April 16, 1940, Bob Feller threw the first Opening Day no-hitter in history. Nomo’s one with the Red Sox was earlier in April, but it was in game 2 of the season, so technically not earlier in the season.

@mykelengieza7057 15 дней назад

Ummm....yeah....I'm a Red Sox fan since conception, and I have to bring up a Yankee, DON LARSEN, who threw a PERFECT GAME TO CLOSE OUT THE WORLD SERIES....that simply is the greatest pitching game ever, no argument. It is most likely the greatest single game achievement in all of sports history(with AL BUNDY's 4 td game being the only exception)

@silverskyscraper1179 16 дней назад

The title should’ve been: in your opinion the greatest no-hitter! Because most people would say it’s not.

@danielkelegian5306 15 дней назад

Exactly.

@Wazhadnin-wj5te 12 дней назад

I disagree. This is the only no hitter that most people talk about to this day. It hasn't been done since. Not sure if you have been to Coors field but it is a batters park 100%. Plus, that line up the Rockies had were no slouches by any means.

@jikan-tabi-1888 16 дней назад

Try throwing a no-hitter at Coors Field against that Rockies line-up with a 0.302 team batting avg. Still the only no-hitter at Coors Field in more than 31 seasons. Not again in our lifetime?

@kenw2225 15 дней назад

Most guys can't finish a game anymore, either due to usage, or coaches yanking them. But I'm sure we'll see another there someday.

@ichironca 15 дней назад

Nomo’s no-no was the most improbable considering the venue (Coors Field), the opponent (Rockies scored 961 runs in 1996), a two hour rain delay before first pitch.

A Japanese player would strike me as a baseball player who would probably be dubious on the Coors effect unless someone explained it to him. I think its fairly normal in Japan.

It's a great one. But I think randy Johnson did it. He was just so clearly intimidating to hitters. Never seen anything like it. Like Pedro and Nolan Ryan were intimidating, but randy size and left handed pitching seemed to just shake everyone in the box

"ESPN cutaway from the Aaron Judge at bat...." ............ ??? You mean ESPN was broadcasting Aaron Judge playing stick ball in his backyard in 1996 when he was 4 years old? Wow.... Talk about growing up in the media spotlight..... Lol. Not sure who you meant to say but would be about 20 more years before we heard who Aaron Judge was
