Los Angeles (AFP) - Chicago Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta threw a no-hitter in a 2-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium, the sixth no-hitter in Major League Baseball this season.
Arrieta's pitching masterclass -- the first Cubs no-hitter in seven years -- made the 29-year-old the major leagues leader in victories.
The 6ft 4in right hander allowed only two baserunners, a walk and an error, on his way to collecting 12 strikeouts from 116 pitches.
