Jake Arrieta throws no-hitter, does post-game interview in PJs, Jessica Mendoza makes history

I understand there was some kind of function going on on MTV tonight, but I don't know anything about that because I am a Cubs fan and was too busy watching Jake Arrieta hit a no-hitter:

This is the 2nd time the Dodgers have been no-hit in the last 9 games.



Cubs manager Joe Maddon had earlier decreed that everyone would fly home on the ride back to Chicago in pajamas, so Arrieta was wearing his best onesie for the post game interview:
