John Rauch currently playing for the Toronto Blue Jays "stands" in at 6' 11". The most successful tall guy is perhaps Randy Johnson who is 6' 10". There is currently a minor league player for the LA Angels AA Arkansas team who is 7' 1" named Loek Van Mil.

Jon Rauch who stands 6'11. This is likely to be broken soon by Loek Van Mill in the Minnesota Twins minor league system who stands 7'1 3/4 tall.

If a pitcher throws a no hitter through nine innings can the no hitter be broken up by the relief pitcher?

In MLB, yes. MLB's definition of a no hitter is: "An official no-hit game occurs when a pitcher (or pitchers) allows no hits during the entire course of a game, which consists of at least nine innings." So a pitcher could pitch a no hitter for nine innings or nineteen innings but if a reliever comes in and gives up a hit, the no hitter is over.
