I just saw where Johan Santana pitched the first (and so far only) no hitter in Mets history in 2012, their 51st season.
Also, at nonohitters.com, they show that although it didn't involve their first no hitter, the Philadelphia Phillies were void of a no-hitter for 58 years, 1 month, 18 days between 1906 and 1964. Their 8,945-game-long streak began on May 3, 1906, one game after Phillies’ southpaw Johnny Lush threw a 6-0 no-hitter against the Brooklyn Superbas. It ended on June 21, 1964, when Jim Bunning threw a 6-0 perfect game against the Mets during a Father’s Day doubleheader at Shea Stadium.
