TORONTO (AP) - Houston Astros ace Justin Verlander is pitching a no-hitter through six innings against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Verlander has thrown two no-hitters in the majors, both while with the Detroit Tigers. He pitched a no-hitter in Toronto in 2011 and also accomplished the feat against Milwaukee in 2007.
