May 17th and no no hitter yet?

(If I missed one make believe this post never happened!)

I don't know why it seems like there are so many so early to you.

2016 only had one it was in April (4/21), but in 2015 the first of 7 came on June 9th.

Other firsts over last 10 years:
05/25/214
7/2/2013
4/21/2012
5/3/2011
4/17/2010
7/10/2009
5/19/2008
4/18/2007

So only 5 seasons over the past 10 seasons had one before 05/16 and only 4 with ones in April.

As far as the longest you can look at 2005, there weren't any.

Maybe I just recall the ones better that come early on. Bigger splash.
