A's Fiers blanks Reds for second career no-hitter

Oakland Athletics right-hander Mike Fiers pitched his second career no-hitter, shutting down the Cincinnati Reds in a 2-0 win Tuesday night.

Fiers, 33, also threw a no-hitter in 2015 for the Houston Astros against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He threw a career-high 134 pitches in that game.

On Tuesday night, Fiers had 131 pitches, striking out six with two walks for the 13th no-hitter in A's history.

It's the first time the A's have had no-hitters in back-to-back seasons, following Sean Manaea's no-no last season against the Boston Red Sox.
