Bryce Harper hit two more homers from the leadoff spot

MONTERREY, Mexico (AP) The Dodgers have the most no-hitters in the majors - and now the most in Mexico, too.

Yimi Garcia struck out two in a perfect eighth and Adam Liberatore threw a 1-2-3 ninth, striking out Franchy Cordero to end it with the Dodgers' 146th pitch.
