How can a pitcher no-hit a team, but the team BA stays the same?

Two ways quickly pop into my mind, neither of which is reasonable:

1) The team BA was .000 coming into the game.

2) Each out is made by throwing out a baserunner; and all baserunners
   got on base without being charged with a time at-bat.
   Example: Every batter walks and is thrown out trying to steal.
