First no-hitter?

[edit]

I realize the information about Keagle pitching the first no-hitter in Elmira Pioneers history was gotten from an external source [1], but there is a question whether it was actually the first or not so I thought I'd bring it up here. There were three no-hitters pitched by the Pioneers in 1965, but...that might technically be considered a different franchise. I'm not sure if it is or not. See, in the 1990's, the then-owner moved the team to Lowell, Mass. A new team was slapped together, but it remained named The Pioneers. Is it actually a completely different franchise with different records attributed to it or does it retain the records of any Elmira Pioneers teams whether it's the same franchise or different? I edited the Elmira Pioneers page to word it so it doesn't have a discrepancy sound to it. But that still means this page about Keagle suddenly looks like a discrepancy because it's mentioned that there were previous no-hitters thrown by Pioneer pitchers--Ando por Fe 05:36, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes

[edit]

It was their first no-hitter. They had no affiliation during his time with the Pioneers, but they were affiliated during the no hitters you mentioned. It should be restated that it was the first in the history of the Northern (or is that Northeastern?) League's Pioneers I think.
