The New Hampshire Fisher Cats put on a pitching clinic on Tuesday, with four hurlers combining for a no-hitter over the visiting Binghamton Rumble Ponies.
Starter Jackson Wentworth pitched into the fifth inning without giving up a hit. Nate Garkow, Irv Carter, and Kai Peterson held up the scoreline, helping the Fisher Cats improve to 11-8 on the young season, good enough for first place in their division.
This was the fifth no-hitter in team history, and their first nine-inning “no-no” since 2012.
It wasn’t exactly the prettiest performance: the pitchers combined for 10 walks, outpacing their 9 strikeouts.
The teams will square off again Wednesday in Manchester, with the first game of a scheduled double header kicking off at 5:05 p.m.
