Kelly O’Bryan threw a no hitter as the Winner/Colome club baseball team defeated Burke/South Central 1-0 April 27 at Leahy Bowl.
The only run of the game came in the first inning by Reed Harter.
O’Bryan pitched seven innings with 7 strikeouts.
Coach Drew Weber said Kelly threw an outstanding game. “It is pretty special to throw a no hitter but especially so against a rival team in a must win type of game like this,” said Weber.
“Kelly’s performance put us back into first in the standings and that is a big advantage for us if we can stay there. Kelly was able to keep the ball down and make good pitches when it really mattered. We were very solid defensively,” said the coach.
Harter led the game off with a single, stole second and third base and scored on an errant throw for the game’s only run.
O’Bryan added a double for Winner/Colome’s only other hit.
Weber said pitching and defense has been the key for the team. “Hopefully our offense will wake up and make us a more complete team,” said the coach.
The Royals record is 8-1.
