Who were the pitchers who tossed no-hit, no-run games in the same ballpark ON SUCCESSIVE DAYS? (And what year?)

Ernie Koob and Bob Groom from St. Louis Brows pitched no-hitters agains the Chicago White Sox on consecutive days - May 5 and May 6, 1917.

Correct. This is the answer I had in mind. In both years the home team lost a no-hitter the first day, then won a no-hitter the following day.
I myself had overlooked the pair of American League NH games, but as stated above the White Sox were VICTIMS of a no-hit game on successive days by Cardinal pitchers Koob and Groom.

Koob and Groom were Browns pitchers.
