By Parker White

Whether it was dotting any part of the plate with his exploding fastball or jelly-legging his opponents with his wicked curveball, Justin Verlander showed once again why he's one of the best pitchers of a generation and a future Hall of Famer, tossing his third career no-hitter on Sunday. Check out all 14 of his strikeouts from his masterpiece against the Toronto Blue Jays:
Complete and utter dominance from Justin Verlander. This is his:

Nine of his 14 strikeouts were of the swinging variety, and his out pitch didn't discriminate. Blue Jays hitters couldn't lock in on one pitch with two strikes, as Verlander had them all working in any count.
But we'd be remiss if you didn't see the final out and Verlander's reaction to history. Take a look:

Frame that and put in on the wall!
Verlander put both arms up in celebration, followed by more excitement from a crouching position, and then he took off his hat before embracing his catcher and jumping around with his teammates. A moment memorialized in baseball immortality, and one of many for JV over the course of his long and dominant MLB reign.
Thank goodness this was a day game because Verlander and Co. will be celebrating this historic feat all night.
