One of baseball’s strangest box scores came with a twist few could believe.

On July 1, 1990, Yankees pitcher Andy Hawkins threw a no-hitter against the White Sox—but still lost, 4-0. Chicago never recorded a hit, yet capitalized on walks, errors, and chaotic conditions to produce one of the most improbable wins in baseball history. The box score remains a reminder that even perfection on the mound doesn’t guarantee victory.
