What about Dave Morehead and Bill Momboquette? Both pitched no hitters.
As did Earl Wilson.

Earl had some power at the plate also. I saw him hit a couple of balls out by the monuments at the old Yankem stadium.

He did indeed! But not as much as my favorite pitcher, Jerry Casales. (And didn't the weak-hitting Raddatz even hit one? or maybe what I'm recalling is he once incredibly hit a ball off the wall?)
(I had forgotten about Brewer's pinch-running: I'm amazed that I could even come up with the name.)

Earl pitched the first game I ever saw at Fenway, which I believe was 1965, and hit a HR his first time up as did Yaz.
Speaking of stupid, that's how Rafaela looked in his latest at bat. Three called strikes for the K.
And yet he leads this team in RBI. That should have given us a hint that reality was gonna show up sooner rather than later and here we are.

Actually, I like Rafaela. I'm just pissed off about the game and especially Mr Stupid McGuire.
I'm pretty sure he was checking for a foreign substance on his throwing hand.
