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?
He wasn't playing for his team in that game. If it's a pro game, he could have been doing a charity demo game that night. Or he could have been in a local baseball league subbing for someone else. Or he could be in fantasy baseball, etc....
