URGENT: Baseball: Hiroshima's Osera throws no-hitter vs. Lotte

Hiroshima Carp right-hander Daichi Osera threw a no-hitter in a 4-0 win over the Lotte Marines in an interleague game Friday.

The 32-year-old allowed five baserunners, all on walks, at Hiroshima's Mazda Stadium for the second no-hitter of the season in Japan after Shosei Togo of the Yomiuri Giants tossed one on May 24 against the Hanshin Tigers.
