The Milwaukee Brewers recently came close to a no-hitter, marking the 36th time in franchise history that they took a no-hitter into the seventh inning. Tyler Alexander and Abner Uribe held the Cincinnati Reds hitless until Gavin Lux broke the spell with a two-out single. On September 10, 2023, the Brewers made history by pitching 10⅓ no-hit innings against the New York Yankees, only to lose in extra innings. This was a significant moment, as no team has ever completed an 11-inning no-hitter. Previously, the Brewers achieved two official no-hitters, with Corbin Burnes and Josh Hader combining for one in 2021 and Juan Nieves throwing the first in 1987.

Among the close calls, Corbin Burnes has notably had multiple near misses, extending his no-hit bids deep into games, showcasing his elite pitching skills. The franchise has a rich history of almost achieving this elusive feat, with various pitchers, like Jim Slaton and Teddy Higuera, experiencing heartbreak in the final innings. The performances of these pitchers, especially in high-pressure situations, provide valuable insights into their fantasy potential and help managers strategize for upcoming matchups.
