Detroit Pitcher Justin Verlander Throws Second Career No-Hitter

In today's 9-0 win over the Toronto Blue Jays, Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander was within one walk of a perfect game. His first career no-hitter came against the Milwaukee Brewers in 2007.

"Just as good as the first," Verlander said of today's feat.
