2015 season, week 21 NYK@GTY On a warm fall day in Gettysburg, with partly cloudy skies and no wind, waiver wire pick-up Chris Young set out to prove that he belonged in a starting rotation. 28 batters and 109 pitches later, he had pitched a complete game no-hitter against the New York Knights. The only blemish on his day was a first inning walk to JD Martinez. The feat wasn't without peril, as Young allowed 4 deep fly rolls, but as luck (rollbot) would have it, none left the yard. Young also got a little defensive help, as Mike Aviles, who had just come into the game as a defensive replacement for Elvis Andrus in the top of the 7th, bare-handed a high chopper and fired to first to get JD Martinez. Young also got a little help from mother nature, as a high fly ball off the bat of Grady Sizemore could have fallen in center field if not for the partly cloudy skies. Young finished the second no-hitter in Gettysburg Generals history (Gavin Floyd had the first) with 7 strikeouts. Young said in his post-game interview that this was the highlight of his career after being summarily dismissed by Seattle Rainier management. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E ------------------------------------------- NYK 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 GTY 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 4 9 0 ------------------------------------------- BATTERS NYK AB R H RI 2B 3B HR SB CS BB K PL PR 1 ss NYK MIL Segura 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 2 rf NYK PHI Byrd 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 3 3 lf NYK DET MartinezJ. 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 3 4 dh NYK MIN Arcia 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 3 5 3b NYK WAS Zimmerman 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 3 6 c NYK SD Grandal 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 3 7 1b NYK MIL Overbay 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 8 2b NYK NYN Flores 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 9 cf NYK CHN Sweeney 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 9 ph NYK PHI Sizemore 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 TOTALS for NYK 27 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 28 PITCHERS NYK IP H R ER BB K HR BF L NYK COL Nicasio 6.1 6 3 3 1 3 1 26 - NYK MIA Hatcher 1.2 3 1 1 0 1 0 9 TOTALS for NYK 8.0 9 4 4 1 4 1 35 LOB: 1 E: 1 - Segura.
