Colorado Rockies pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez tossed a no-hitter to beat the Braves 4-0 Saturday night at Turner Field.

Jimenez, who has been in the majors since 2007, pitched the first no-hitter in Rockies' history. Jimenez, 26, got some help from a running catch by outfield Dexter Fowler late in the game.

The last no-hitter vs. the Braves came on May 18, 2004, at the hands of the Diamondbacks' Randy Johnson.
