Jered Weaver Throws First No Hitter

Angel's pitcher Jered Weaver threw the first no hitter of his career, last night. It was the second no hitter of the MLB season, and the ninth in Angel's history.

He went the full nine innings, only seeing two batters reach base. One on a missed third strike, by the catcher, in the second; the other on a walk, in the seventh.

Weaver, who finished second in American League Cy Young voting, last year, struck out nine of the Twins' batters. Earlier this year he crossed the one thousand strike outs barrier, in his MLB career.

So far this season, Weaver is 4-0 with forty-five strike outs in 44.2 innings pitched. He is running an ERA of 1.61.
