Longoria Tosses No-Hitter Against Waimalu
Wednesday, June 4th , 2042
Miguel Longoria was feeling calm about his no-hitter -- until the last three outs.
"You really become conscious of every pitch at that point," he said. "The adrenaline level kicks up even higher. Everybody in the ballpark knows a no-hitter is on the line. The crowd is on its feet. One mistake and it's all over."
There were no mistakes to be had for Longoria on this day at Waimalu Grounds. The Mokule'ia Oceanic left-hander was in complete command, not allowing the Waimalu Nene a single base hit in the 7-0 victory.
"Obviously, you never think this will happen," he said to BNN reporters after the game. "I don't know if it's really sunk in yet."
Longoria faced 30 batters, had 13 strikeouts and gave up 2 walks in a dominating effort.
"He was on from the get-go," Nene manager Miguel GarcĂa said. "He was hitting his spots and keeping us off balance. It was a great game by him."
