West King of Fling with No-Hitter Sunday, September 8th , 2069 Maryland Bridegrooms starter Al West came up big at Madison County Grounds with an exceptional 8-0 win against the Alabama Yellowhammers. Not only did he whip them, but West held them hitless, too. "My arm was a bit sore in warmups," confessed West. "Sometimes you go out there and you're not feeling all that hot. You get into the game and all of a sudden in the seventh inning you look up and see the scoreboard and think to yourself, 'Oh, my goodness, I have a no-hitter!' You're so focused on what you're doing, it just happens." In the course of the no-hitter, West collected 7 strikeouts and surrendered 5 walks -- a day good enough to get his name in the history books. Checking out his stats for the year, West has racked up 7 wins and 5 losses in 26 starts, posted a 5.19 ERA, and struck out 97 batters in 130 innings. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
