We wrapped up our trip on a high note – a no-hitter. Heading into the game, Skidmore sported a 6-1 record, its only loss an 11-15 setback. They had scored 65 runs in six games heading into the series, so it was a nice win against a quality program. Holding them to four runs in Game 1 was pretty good, too. Unfortunately their ace(Zach Rudman) held us to one run. Last season, he led Division III in fewest hits per nine innings.
Let’s give credit to Zach Hugg from Game 1. He only gave up a couple of hard-hit balls, too.
With the no-hitter/shutout, Ace and Lurch were given the option of a free steak dinner or pitcher’s BP. Without hesitation they chose the BP. Get Sam Miller ready! (just kidding, Sam).
The night before, erstwhile pitching coach Matt Sullivan and Andy, Tommy Dee and I had a discussion about when the last no hitter was. Go figure. Sully left in the morning so was not able to watch the game. Sully – You’re fired!
In the next week, I’ll post some of our Florida videos and thoughts on the trip. In the meantime, I’d like to give a shout out to Josh Melquist, Josh Greco, Taylor Gahagen and Tommy Dee. All four took in some games during the week.
