MURFREESBORO, Tenn - Drew Horn earns Conference USA Pitcher of the Week for his no-hitter on Sunday, March 9 against Oakland.
Drew Horn threw for just the fifth no-hitter in MTSU history on Sunday, March 9th against the Oakland Golden Grizzlies'. He tallied 13 strikeouts, six of which were looking on 110 pitches for a career high in Ks.
He started off recording seven strikeouts in the first four innings and allowing just one walk, while MTSU put three runs on the board in the fourth. Horn struck out two more hitters in the next two frames, bringing his total to nine. He returned to the mound in the seventh and struck out the side in order on 11 pitches, earning an eruption of applause from the Blue Raider faithful.
Horn breezed through the eighth inning with ease, throwing 10 pitches and adding his 13th and final strikeout.
Heading into the final frame, the crowd's energy grew as Horn took the mound. The first batter popped up to second base for the first out. The second batter grounded a hard ball to third baseman Brett Vondohlen, who made a solid play for the second out. The final batter stepped to the plate, and on the second pitch of the at-bat, hit a blooper to center field. Eston Snider got a late jump but sprinted in and dove for the ball. He caught it in his glove and threw his arms in the air to celebrate Horn's incredible feat.
Horn's final line: nine innings pitched, no hits allowed, no runs, and two walks. It was just the second nine-inning complete-game no-hitter in program history, and the first since Chandler Alderman's eight-inning no-hitter last season.
