It's fitting that as the 2015 Orioles season sinks into beautiful oblivion, one of the members of Dave Trembley's cavalry has thrown a no-hitter. Pitching for the Cubs on the ESPN stage on Sunday night, Jake Arrieta tossed a no-hitter against the Dodgers in Los Angeles - the second time in the span of nine games that $300 million team has been no-hit.
For Orioles fans who are aghast watching the flaming wreckage of the year, it's an extra twist of the knife to see someone who was once supposed to be part of the success plan here turn in such brilliance for another team.
