Delpino Spins Masterpiece, No-Hits Kisumu Tuesday, June 3rd , 2149 The Lillehammer Loppet relied on no-hit stuff from starter Marco Delpino to defeat the Kisumu Cheetahs, 2-0, at Quezon Grounds. "It's quite a thrill," Delpino 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 Kisumu cold and hitless, surrendering 6 walks and fanning 6 of the 32 batters he faced. Lillehammer manager was in a jovial mode after the game, kidding with reporters that Delpino "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." Thus far this year, Delpino is hitting .295 with 6 home runs, 20 RBIs and 24 runs scored. |
