On September 25, 1986 — Houston’s Mike Scott pitches a 2 – 0 no-hitter against the Giants at the Astrodome, clinching the National League West title for the Astros. It is the first time the pennant has ever been decided by a no-hitter, although Allie Reynolds’ second no-no of the season assured the Yankees a tie for the 1951 American League pennant.

It is the third consecutive game in which Astros pitchers have allowed two hits or less. The win cements Scott’s hold on the first Cy Young Award in team annals. Denny Walling breaks the scoreless game with a solo homer off Juan Berenguer in the fifth. . Scott fans 13 in the 2-0 victory
