Jake Arrieta pitched his first career no-hitter, the second no-hitter against the Dodgers in 10 days, leading the Cubs to a 2-0 win Sunday night, according to an ESPN.com report.

Arrieta was lights-out on the mound, striking out a season-high 12. 

Yet again it is a hamstring strain keeping Yasiel Puig out of the Dodgers' lineup and on the disabled list.

The team placed its right fielder on the DL prior to Friday's win over the Cubs at Dodger Stadium. 

Puig missed 39 games early in the season with a left hamstring strain, and he had already missed three games during the recent road trip because of this right hamstring strain.

Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez left Thursday's game against the Reds with a bruised right knee after fouling a pitch off his leg in the third inning.

Yasiel Puig also left the game after pulling up when he beat out an infield single in the ninth inning.

Puig left a game last week in Oakland with tightness in his right hamstring. He missed 38 games earlier this season with a strained left hamstring.

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said removing Gonzalez was a precautionary measure. Gonzalez said "absolutely, 100 percent" when was asked if he will return to the lineup Friday night against the Cubs. 

Buster Posey followed Brandon Belt's leadoff triple in the sixth with a go-ahead double, Jake Peavy won for the second time in six starts, and the Giants beat the Cubs 4-2 on Wednesday night to stop Chicago's six-game winning streak.

Justin Verlander lost a bid for his third no-hitter when Chris Iannetta hit a leadoff double in the ninth inning, and the Tigers beat the Angels 5-0 Wednesday night.

Trying to become the sixth major leaguer to throw three no-hitters, Verlander settled instead for a one-hit shutout. 

He was an inch away from so much more.

A routine fly ball that dropped between Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun set off Angels starter Jered Weaver on Tuesday night.

However, Weaver said his dugout rant after the third inning was directed at himself and the team as a whole.

"I wasn't yelling at Mike or anyone in particular," he said. "I told Mike afterward that I would never show up a teammate like that, and he's certainly saved more runs for me in the outfield than he's ever given up. I just wanted the whole team to realize that we're in the middle of a pennant race and we have to start playing better."

During the Astros' win over the Yankees Tuesday night, Carlos Gomez told Joe Girardi and the Yankees' dugout to "shut up," causing the benches to clear.

During the sixth-inning incident, Girardi instructed the "emotional" Gomez to "play the game the right way." In the eighth, Gomez nailed a three-run homer.

After the blowout, Gomez added he is not listening to Girardi, anyway.

"I don't care what Joe Girardi says," Gomez told ESPN Deportes' Marly Rivera.

Gomez said he understood the Yankees' frustration, but felt he wasn't trying to show them up.

Luis Severino earned his first major league win, getting all the support he needed in the first inning Saturday on a pair of home runs from Brett Gardner and Brian McCann as the Yankees beat the Indians 6-2, according to an ESPN.com report.

Madison Bumgarner hit his fifth homer of the season and Marlon Byrd drilled his 20th in his first game with the defending World Series champions , as San Francisco held off the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-4 on Friday night to climb within 1 1/2 games of the Dodgers for first in the NL West.
