His teammates call him ROY for winning the A.L. Rookie of the Year in 2006, but it might be time to add "NO" to that nickname.

Verlander no-hit the Milwaukee Brewers at Comerica Park Tuesday night in front of 33,555 screaming Tigers fans. Brewers shortstop J.J. Hardy flew out to Magglio Ordonez for the final out as Verlander threw 112 pitches and struck out a career high 12 batters to lead the Tigers to a 4-0 win.

**It's the first no-hitter by a Tiger at home since 1952...
**This is the second no-hitter Ivan Rodriguez has caught.
