Dodger right-hander Fred Frankhouse holds the Reds hitless for 7.2 innings before a heavy downpour ends the Ebbets Field contest permanently. The right-hander’s 5-0 victory will be one of the 31 “no-no’s” erased when MLB redefines a no-hitter in 1991 as a game in which a pitcher throws nine innings or more without giving up a hit.

On August 27, 1937 — Brooklyn Dodger right-hander Fred Frankhouse holds the Cincinatti Reds hitless for 7.2 innings before a heavy downpour ends the Ebbets Field contest permanently. The right-hander’s 5-0 victory will be one of the 31 “no-no’s” erased when MLB redefines a no-hitter in 1991 as a game in which a pitcher throws nine innings or more without giving up a hit.

Cookie Lavagetto paces the offense going 3-3, the Red’s didn’t help themselves commiting 4 errors and getting another runner tossed out at third trying to steal.
