Posted June 14, 200717 yr Not sure if it has ever happended but has an umpire come this close to 2 no hitters? im sure a couple of umps have been behind the plate for 2 no hitters but never back to back. Ron Kulpa was one out away from doing just that. Kulpa called Curt Shillings one hitter last week @ Oak 5 days later (next game behind the plate) Kulpa called Verlanders no hitter vs Mil of course it was the same crew, but Kulpa was the home plate ump for both.
