It's only been done five times previously in MLB history - Pirates win 1-0 despite being no-hit.

Reds' manager was going to let Greene complete the game until he walked two in bottom of 8th and hit 118 pitches with only one out. Reliever walked his first batter to load the bases, then a high bouncer was hit where Reds couldn't turn a DP and run scored.

5 times? Would have guessed this was third.

That's baseball, Suzyn.
