    Not sure how they would officially measure that but it may very well be. Arrieta threw a 16-0 no hitter against the Reds. He walked four and struck out six so the Astros performance seems more dominant.

    First 1-hitter in the modern era with 20+ runs scored.

    Yeah, I’m not sure how you would quantify it either, but after some digging I can’t find anything more dominant. When you factor in all the differentials, strikeouts, etc., I really think this might have been the most dominant win in the history of Major League Baseball.

    I tweeted Buster Olney. I’ll post if he replies.

    Yep, none of the no-hitters or high-strikeout games were as lopsided as this one.

    fun fact: M's hit 3 balls out of the infield
