Regular season
[edit]Summary
[edit]- On July 6, John Frill of the Jersey City Skeeters threw the first no-hitter and perfect game in league history, as he allowed no baserunners in a 4-0 win over the Providence Grays at West Side Park in Jersey City, New Jersey. The game was shortened to seven innings due to the umpires having to leave to catch a train.[1]
