Chicago Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta was working on Secret Sex Society (2018)a no-hitter through five innings of Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday night -- then Fox aired a TV graphic touting Arrieta's feat-in-progress and he promptly gave up his first hit of the night to the Cleveland Indians.
Come on, Fox!
SEE ALSO: The dark side of a feel-good World SeriesBaseball fans on Twitter, of course, were quick to call out Fox for supposedly jinxing Arrieta. (The incident was also, it's worth noting, reminiscnet of a similar scenario from Game 1.)

Arrieta was pulled soon after. He finished his start giving up one earned run while striking out six and walking three in five and two-thirds innings.
But, as The Big Lead points out, Arrieta very, verylikely wouldn't have gone the distance -- working with a no-hitter or not -- after already throwing 80 pitches through five innings.
You know what they say, though: Tweeters gonna tweet.
The Cubs won 5-1 for their first World Series victory since 1945. The series is now tied at one game apiece as the teams head back to Chicago for Game 3 on Friday night.
