Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta threw a no-hitter in Los Angeles against the Dodgers on Sunday night in a fantastic performance. Afterwards during his news conference, ESPN went down the well of obscure baseball stats to give us this gem:

That’s all well and good, but one has to question why ESPN didn’t display the stat that Arrieta was the first pitcher to throw a no-hitter AND do his post-game press conference in a mustache emblazoned onesie.
Cubs' Jake Arrieta no-hit the Dodgers, then wore a mustache onesie, because he's the best. http://t.co/PL6IJFqgpz pic.twitter.com/6KFfrzdpFI
