Rhome Hexed: No-Hit by Simmons
Saturday, May 22nd , 2049
Excitement reigned at Hooks Ballpark as Oklahoma City Hooks hurler Rich Simmons tossed a baseball rarity -- a no-hitter.
After defeating the Rhome Rhavioli, 5-0, he was swamped by reporters in the clubhouse for postgame comments.
"I'm just glad to be here," Simmons said. "Today I just went right at the Rhavioli as hard as I could, as long as I could."
Simmons, who leads the CR in strikeouts with 52, chalked up 10 strikeouts and allowed 2 walks in his superb performance.
"I don't think they could have stopped him with a howitzer today," said Oklahoma City manager Chris Ouverson.
In 7 starts this season, Simmons has recorded 4 wins and absorbed 2 losses. He has pitched 52 innings, allowed 38 hits, struck out 52 and has a 2.25 ERA.
