Dougherty Mows Down Nakuru in No-Hitter Tuesday, May 16th , 2147 The Gwangju Monks relied on no-hit stuff from starter Dave Dougherty to defeat the Nakuru Crocodiles 8-0 at BAE Systems Field today. "It's quite a thrill," Dougherty told the media afterward. "This is a top-notch league. A no-hitter against any team in the league is something special. I can't believe I did it." To get his name logged in the Intercontinental Baseball League records, he stopped Nakuru cold and hitless, surrendering no walks and fanning 9 of the 28 batters he faced. Gwangju manager was in a jovial mode after the game, kidding with reporters that Dougherty "made managing easy today." "I didn't have hardly any decisions to make like I usually do," he said. "I didn't even have to come up with a pinch hitter." To date Dougherty is 3-1 in 7 starts with a 2.36 ERA and has 43 strikeouts in 49.2 innings. |
