Bob Rhoads's No-Hitter

DateSep 18, 1908
ScoreRed Sox 1, Naps 2
TypeNo hitter

The Cleveland Naps held the Boston Red Sox without a hit on September 18, 1908, winning 2–1. Bob Rhoads started the game for the Cleveland Naps.

It was played at League Park III in Cleveland. The announced attendance was 6,950. Frank Arellanes started for the Boston Red Sox. Tommy Connolly umpired behind the plate. It was played in daylight, as every game was: the first night game in the major leagues came in 1935.

The game log records each side's starting pitcher rather than everyone who appeared, so where a no-hitter was finished by a second pitcher this page names the man who began it.
