Wow. Absolutely amazing. When Jim Leyland told his starters that the team needed them to last deeper into games Justin Verlander took that to heart. Tonight he tossed a no-hitter against the Milwaukee Brewers dominating the hitters racking up a total of 12 K’s.

That is one hell of a stat line. Amazing game that I didn’t go to but saw on TV. My wife was there though but I’m not sure that makes up for it :) There isn’t a whole heck of allot that I can add to this evening but I did collect a few of the initial headlines from around news outlets for posterity:
ESPN started covering the no-no during the seventh inning.
Continuing into the eighth inning where they broke into coverage nationally.
Others around the Tiger blogosphere are all over this as well:

- Kurt @ Mack Ave Tigers

101 MPH is really something. This might not be the last no-hitter Verlander gets. There are some good quotes of his reaction to the game here: http://www.thenewsroom.com/details/401646?c_id=bh
