A pitcher comes into a baseball game in the first inning, he strikes out 27 straight batters all the way through 9 innings, not a single hit, run, walk, error, interference, or hit-by-pitch was recorded. There were no recording errors. His ERA (earned run average) and WHIP (walks/hits per inning pitched) were both 0.00, his team DID NOT forfeit, yet his team lost the game, why?

the pitcher came into the game, didnt start it, and the game went into extra innings
