The Dodgers know full well how the Reds feel after being victimized by a Jake Arrieta no-hitter on Thursday.

The 30-year-old right-hander limited Cincinnati to four walks and struck out six batters as Chicago bashed their NL Central rival 16-0.

Arrieta is now 4-0 on the season with a 0.87 ERA. Through four games this season, Arrieta has yielded just three runs on 15 hits in an MLB-high 31 innings while striking out 26 and walking six.

After being no-hit by Arrieta in 2015, the Dodgers threw a sympathy tweet toward the Reds, which led to a hilarious exchange on Twitter:

On Aug. 30, 2015, Arrieta struck out 12 Dodgers batters and walked just one as he marched on to his first no-hitter and eventually took home the NL Cy Young Award.

The Cubs are off to a red-hot start this season, improving to an MLB-best 12-4 on the young campaign. Through their first 16 games, Chicago has scored a whopping 97 runs, tops in the MLB.

Arrieta had just nine starts in between his no-hitters, the third shortest span between no-hitters in MLB history.

"I was able to keep them off balance," Arrieta said of the Reds on the CSN Chicago broadcast afterwards, according to USA Today Sports. "Later in the game, pound the strike zone with good movement, keep the ball down. Pitching to contact was the goal today and I did a pretty good job of that."

Kris Bryant had two homers in the game, one of which was a grand slam, and it was the first no-hitter caught by David Ross, who intends to retire at the end of the season. Still, the biggest story remains Arrieta, who was dealt from the Orioles to the Cubs for Scott Feldman in 2013 and eventually morphed himself into one of the elite pitchers in the game.

"There's so many things I've been able to be a part of and do over the past 12 to 15 months," Arrieta said. "I'm really just trying to enjoy it as much as I can."

The Dodgers and Reds may not be enjoying his success, but at least they have each other.
