A few notes:

Only some of these games qualify as no-hitters. In the 2008 and 1990 games, the winning team was at home so the competition didn't pitch a full 9 innings.
Notice the WPA--for most of these games, the batters were well below zero, as one might expect.
Notice too the huge variation in Leverage Index. In 2008, the Dodgers had just about no pressure situations and had the game handed to them by the Angels.
Every team had at least one batter reach on error.
For a good time, click on that 1967 box score. It's just about the craziest game ever.

No team has every won in the playoffs with no hits, but here are the lowest hit totals for a post-season winner:
