Did You Know?
- Hahn's no-hitter was the first of the 20th century.
- It was also the first time in the modern era that a pitcher tossed a no-hitter in the same season in which he lost 20 games and is one of only three (Joe Bush vs. Indians on August 26, 1916 at Shibe Park in Philadelphia; Sam Jones vs. Pirates on May 12, 1955 at Wrigley Field in Chicago).
- Roy Thomas tried to spoil the no-hitter by laying down a bunt with two outs in the ninth, but was thrown out by a step.
- This was the second of two no-hitters caught by Heinie Peitz (Ted Breitenstein vs. Pirates on April 22, 1898 at League Park II in Cincinnati).
