[edit] Biographical Information
Bill James created a formula to calculate how likely a pitcher is to pitch a no-hitter. Based on that formula, Steve Busby was the least likely pitcher in major league history (of pitchers who actually pitched two no-hitters) to pitch the two no-hitters that he did. See Expected No-Hitters.
Steve Busby was a television broadcaster for the Texas Rangers from 1982 to 1995. In 1989, he played for the Orlando Juice of the Senior Professional Baseball Association.
