Forgive me if this is a duplicate post (Greinke)

PrintI've been looking and I don't have the time at the moment to verify it.
Has any pitcher ever started a season 4-0 with 0.00 ERA? If they did, how many IP's did they have? like 3 per game?
I've been looking for one. I started with most recent and haven't found any. I may just not be looking in the right places; and it's possible even that there's a duplicate post on here somewhere -- that somebody already did the research and found that even though it's early, Greinke has already done something that no other pitcher ever has done.

Fernando Mania started out with 4 games of 0 ER in '85
2-2 record 33 IP 25 K’s gave up 4 earned runs and got two losses due to that.
Fernando’s start in ’81 was actually better. 7-0 63 IP 2 ER
I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.
yes I saw the 0.00 ERA
but I am looking for the combination
Come on, Annie, think of something clever to say, huh? Something full of magic, religion, bullshit. Come on, dazzle me.
I think ESPN said it has never happened before
I think they said Fernando was the only other pitcher to even begin the year with a 0.00 ERA after four starts.

I wonder if he had that record after 3-0
combined with the 0.00 ERA
Come on, Annie, think of something clever to say, huh? Something full of magic, religion, bullshit. Come on, dazzle me.
Zakq does have another streak though
If he gets through wednesday unscathed he will be the only pitcher in history to record 7 straight starts with no earned runs.
I refuse to set up a signature....DAMMIT
okay so Fernando Skrewjeezuela
in 1981 went 5-0 through April with 1 earned run for a 0.20 ERA then went on to not lose until May 18 by that time he was 8-0 going in.
I’ve found that he did that with very little run support as well.
Then he finished the regular season at 13-7 and a 2.48.
What’s more, they went to the World Series against the Yankees.

but then the other year 1985 and the Elias Brothers quote …

they said that this is the first time in the last 55 years …
What happened 55 years ago?
Come on, Annie, think of something clever to say, huh? Something full of magic, religion, bullshit. Come on, dazzle me.
55 years ago
May be as far back as retrosheet data goes

1944 World series was the other
Missouri World Series wasn’t it?
Cards vs. Browns?
Watered down rosters because everyone was fighting in WWII?
Come on, Annie, think of something clever to say, huh? Something full of magic, religion, bullshit. Come on, dazzle me.
wow -- I wondered where this went
not only the wrong thread… an entirely different blog-forum!
