The Los Angeles Angels were going for their first sweep of 2012 on Wednesday night. They ended up getting much, much more than that, as they coasting to a 9-0 win while team ace Jered Weaver pitched the ninth no-hitter in team history.

Weaver went the whole nine innings and allowed just two baserunners, on a walk and a passed ball on a strikeout. Weaver picked up nine strikeouts in the no-no, the last of which was for the second out of the ninth inning, as he struck out Denard Span looking.
