Chicago Cubs woke up this morning still in awe of Jake Arrieta's no-hit performance against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday night.

Amazingly, It was Arrieta's second no-hitter since last August, and he becomes the first Cubs pitcher in history to throw a no-hitter in consecutive seasons and the third Cubs pitcher to throw multiple no-hitters with Larry Corcoran and Ken Holtzman.

Arrieta predicted that he would "be a dominant starter" back in 2013 (Baltimore Orioles pitcher) to an internet troll on his Twitter account.
