Stieb had consecutive games where he was ONE STRIKE away from a no-hitter!
On Sep 24, 1988 in Cleveland, he had a no-hitter with 2 outs in the ninth, and a 2-2 count on Julio Franco, when Franco singled. Stieb got the next batter to fly out to end the game.
Six days later on Sep 30 at home against the Orioles, he did the exact same thing. He had a no-hitter with 2 outs in the ninth and a 2-2 count on Jim Traber, when Traber got a single. Stieb got the next batter to ground out to end the game.
