1927 – Leading 1 – 0 and one out from a complete game no-hitter over the Memphis Red Sox, Chicago American Giants pitcher Webster McDonald allows an unearned run to score on errors, tying the game at 1 – 1 in a Negro National League game. McDonald loses the no-hitter in the 10th when he surrenders a single, and he loses the game, 2 – 1, when the Red Sox score in the 11th on back-to-back doubles. McDonald’s near-classic just misses being part of the only back-to-back no-hitters in Negro Leagues history, as teammate Willie Powell had no-hit the Red Sox the day before.
