Heston was the 22nd rookie pitcher to throw a no-hitter. He did not walk a batter, but he hit three of them, joining Wiltse in 1908 and Brown in 1997 as no-hitter pitchers whose only base-runners came on hit batsmen. Heston's is the first such game to feature more than one hit by pitch. First no-hitter/perfect game in regular-season interleague play.

Maris' mark was broken 37 years later by both Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa during the 1998 home run record chase, with McGwire ultimately setting a new record of 70. Barry Bonds, who also has the most career home runs, then broke that mark, setting the current single season record of 73 in 2001. The 1998 and 2001 seasons each had four players hit 50 or more home runs – Greg Vaughn, Ken Griffey Jr., Sosa, and McGwire in 1998 and Alex Rodriguez, Luis Gonzalez, Sosa, and Bonds in 2001.

Mathews was a consistent power hitter for the Milwaukee Braves in the '50s and early '60s, hitting at least 30 home runs nine straight seasons. He led the league twice, with 47 in 1953 and 46 in '59, and was a 12-time All-Star. Considered by some to be the best third baseman of all time, Schmidt led the National League in home runs eight times during one 15-year stretch. He played his entire 18 years with the Phillies and was named NL MVP on three occasions. Barry Bonds holds the Major League Baseball career home run record with 762.

He led the league in home runs three times, highlighted by his MVP season of 1969 when he hit .320 with 45 home runs and 126 RBIs. Robinson burst onto the baseball scene with 38 home runs and a league-high 122 runs scored as a 20-year-old rookie with the Reds in 1956. He continued to be one of the game’s top power hitters for the next 15 years, though he led the league in homers only once .
Eckersley had pitched seven hitless innings to finish his previous start, then took a no-hit bid into the sixth inning in his next. His 21 consecutive hitless innings was the longest streak since Cy Young in 1904. Eckersley spent nine more seasons as a starter before becoming a Hall of Fame closer. He retired with 390 saves, the most by any pitcher who also threw a no-hitter. Pitched seven innings of no-hit ball in next start.
