Monroeville Hexed: No-Hit by Pike Friday, June 19th , 2054 Zebulon Pike relied on excellent pitch selection and pinpoint control to hold Monroeville hitless in a 6-0 win at Dragoons War Memorial Stadium today. "Nobody goes out to pitch a no-hitter," he said later. "We just go out and try to get a win. A 10-9 win is better than a 1-0 loss. My pitching buddies might not be too happy giving up nine runs but a win is a win. The key to it today was I mixed my pitches well. I kept the Yinzers off balance and guessing the whole game." The 22-year-old starter rung up 14 strikeouts and 2 walks in whipping the Yinzers. "When a guy is throwing strikes the way he was and is locating well, it is going to be a long day for any club," Monroeville skipper Luis Arreola said. This year Pike has worked 60 innings with 82 strikeouts en route to a 4-2 record and 1.95 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
