Reds pitcher Miley throws no-no, Cardinals and Cubs win, Braves lose Friday

The fourth no-hitter of the young Major League Baseball season belongs to Wade Miley. The Cincinnati Reds’ left-hander accomplished the feat Friday night against the Cleveland Indians, winning 3-0. A couple of errors and a walk kept Miley from reaching perfection. Unfortunately for Cleveland, it’s the second time they couldn’t manage a hit in a game this season. They were also no-hit by Chicago White Sox pitcher Carlos Rodon. The teams play again Saturday afternoon with pregame at 4:40 on News Radio 95.3 FM/1230 AM WHOP.
