Pirates Tie MLB Record For Consecutive 1-0 Games

Bill asked: Major league record for the most consecutive 1-0 games played?


Rick answered: Bill, thank you for your question.

When the Pittsburgh Pirates played 3 consecutive 1-0 games this past week, they became the 4th MLB Franchise in baseball's "live ball era" to do this.

The other teams to do that since 1920 are the 1960 Phillies, the 67 Kansas City Athletics and the 71 Brewers, based on information from Elias Sports Bureau.

Yours in baseball,

Rick

Re: the record for consecutive 1-0 games, didn't the Baltimore Orioles set a record for that (either in 1974 or 1973?) by playing in five consecutive 1-0 games?

As I recall, the Orioles starters accounted for 4 victories during that streak; Gaylord Perry of the Indians interrupted the club streak with a shutout
