Another interesting stat debunking the NL vs AL myth when it comes to no hitters:

1971-1972 - NO DH
1971 - 3 no hitters all NL
1972 - 3 no hitters all NL

1973 - DH introduced
5 no hitters, 4 of them were in the AL

1974
3 no hitters, all in the AL

So the two years before it was introduced there were 6 no hitters all in the NL, the 2 years afterwards there were 8 no hitters and 7 of them were in the AL.
