On this day in 1994 the Brewers traveled to the Metrodome to take on the Twins, but left their bats at home. The Twins scored runs in the first, second, third and fourth innings but could've gotten away with much less, as Scott Erickson pitched a no-hitter en route to a 6-0 victory.
The Brewers didn't get their first baserunner in the game until the fourth inning, when Bill Spiers drew a walk. Milwaukee had four free passes and a hit batsman in the game, but went a combined 0-for-26 in official at bats. Here's the lineup from that game:
| Player | Pos | Line |
| Alex Diaz | CF | 0-for-4 |
| Bill Spiers | SS | 0-for-2, 2 BB |
| Turner Ward | LF | 0-for-3. BB |
| Greg Vaughn | DH | 0-for-4 |
| Dave Nilsson | C | 0-for-2, BB |
| Kevin Seitzer | 3B | 0-for-3 |
| Brian Harper | RF | 0-for-3 |
| John Jaha | 1B | 0-for-2, HBP |
| Jose Valentin | 2B | 0-for-2, GIDP |
| Jody Reed | PH | 0-for-1 |
This is the second of three times in franchise history the Brewers have been no-hit. Steve Busby of the Royals did it to them in 1974, and Justin Verlander of the Tigers accomplished the feat in 2007.
