When was the last cubs no-no?

[squally1313]

Vance, looking over your stats, just a quick question...or maybe a correction. Do pitchers get credited with giving up a home run when it's of the inside the park variety?

[AFCubsFan]

No hitters aren't really too historic...especially for the Red Sox. Hitting for the cycle is actually more rare in baseball.

When was the last cubs no-no?

 

1972 Milt Pappas?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wigginton grounded out to the pitcher, 1-3

Yes. Better question is if it counts against their BABIP.
