- Cole Hamels of the Philadelphia Phillies pitched a no-hitter including 13 strikeouts against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on Saturday in a 5-0 win. Backed by Ryan Howard, who crushed a three-run homer in the third, the 31-year-old Hamels (6-7) allowed just two baserunners on a pair of walks as he threw 129 pitches to register the first no-hitter at hitter-friendly Wrigley Field in 43 years. Chris Heston of the San Francisco Giants threw the first against New York Mets on June 9, and Max Scherzer of the Washington Nationals followed suit against the Pittsburgh Pirates on June 20.
