BREAKING: Verlander No-Hits Jays

The Detroit Tigers Justin Verlander went the full nine innings against Toronto- walking one and striking out four for the second no-no of his career...

A 9-0 win over the Blue Jays...

He was even asked a few years ago how to actually throw one of these no-hitters...

Verlander's only baserunner was with one out in the eighth inning when J.P. Arencibia walked on a full count- on Verlander's 12th pitch of the at-bat.

It was the fourth time the Blue Jays have been no-hit in the team's existence- the last was by the Texas Rangers' Nolan Ryan, on his 7th no-hitter May 1, 1991.

Here's the ninth inning...
