In baseball, throwing a no-hitter is a pitching accomplishment in which one or more pitchers does not yield a hit in the course of one game. A no-hitter is rare in NPB, occurring 66 times since Fumio Fujimura's first cycle during the single league era in 1948.[clarification needed] In terms of frequency, the cycle is roughly as common as a no-hitter (101 occurrences in NPB history based on the more recognised international definition, which is not to be confused with the NPB definition, counting combined no-hitters and those where runs were scored by the losing team, which may occur with players advancing on base without hits).
Unlike in Major League Baseball (MLB), combined no-hitters are not considered as official no-hitters by Nippon Professional Baseball.
