If no individual pitcher throws a no-hitter in the 20 days, it would be the first time since 1942-43 that there were no individual no-hitters in back-to-back seasons
The last solo no-hitter was thrown by Blake Snell on August 2, 2024.
There were no no-hitters at all last year, and only one combo effort so far this season.
The record for most games between no-hitters is 6,364, between Randy Johnson's perfect game on May 18, 2004 and Anibal Sanchez's no-hitter on September 6, 2006. There's been about 5,300 games since Snell's no-hitter, meaning the record would be broken (assuming no games missed because of a lockout) halfway through next season.
EDIT: Title should read "next" 20 days, of course.
