At one point in time (and maybe it's still true) I believe there had been more no-hitters thrown in MLB history than players hitting for the cycle.

Yes indeed it is. There may even be less cycles than perfect games - I can't recall which it is, no-hitters or perfect games that the cycle is more rare than.

Congrats to Halladay on the feat, but in all honesty, the Perfect Game and No Hitter are only going to become more and more common.

 

With the home run being the main focus on offense and all the hitters with open stances trying to pull the ball now, it's getting easier for good pitchers. If you noticed, the pitchers who have gotten the perfect games aren't the ones with electric stuff but rather the pitchers who know how to pitch, don't throw anything straight, change speeds, etc... all the things that are like kryptonite to players who try to hit home runs and pull the ball.
