Desperados Manship No-Hits Flyers Wednesday, September 22nd , 2021 John Manship 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 Manship on this day at Newark Fields. The Santa Rosa Desperados right-hander was in complete command, not allowing the Newark Flyers a single base hit in the 2-0 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." Manship faced 29 batters, had 10 strikeouts and gave up 2 walks in a dominating effort. "He was on from the get-go," Flyers manager Carlos Almendarez said. "He was hitting his spots and keeping us off balance. It was a great game by him." For this year, Manship has chalked up 11 wins and 5 losses in 28 starts with 128 strikeouts in 139 innings and a 2.91 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
