Stream episodes on demand from www.bitesz.com or www.theabl.com.au It's something any pitcher loves to have on their resume, a no-hitter. At MLB level there's usually only a couple of them each year, and at the time of this episode going up there hasn't been one in over a year. In Japan's NPB there have been less than 100, and in that country's BC-League there have been just a handful; Australia's Josh Tols became the fifth to throw one last week when his Niigata Albirex blanked the Musashi Sun Bears 6-0.
