Arrieta records best second-half ERA in history
Arrieta earns win No. 22 1:14 10/2/15: Jake Arrieta scatters two hits over six scoreless innings, striking out seven to earn his MLB-leading 22nd win of the season MILWAUKEE -- Earlier in the day, Jake Arrieta was simply "dad," buying his two kids warm jackets to handle the early autumn chill. Friday night, the Cubs right-hander switched gears and became the most unhittable second-half pitcher in Major League history.
The Brewers were no match for Arrieta, who threw six shutout innings in the Cubs' 6-1 victory at Miller Park. It was his final start before the National League Wild Card Game presented by Budweiser, which will be Wednesday against the Pirates.
