 | Siller Outstanding, No-Hits Crawdads
Thursday, May 26th, 2039
The Hagerstown Suns relied on no-hit stuff from starter Wilson Siller to defeat the Hickory Crawdads 22-0 at Little Rock Fields today.
"It's quite a thrill," Siller told the media afterward. "This is a top-notch league. A no-hitter against any team in the league is something special. I can't believe I did it."
To get his name logged in the Empire Professional Baseball League records, he stopped Hickory cold and hitless, surrendering 2 walks and fanning 12 of the 29 batters he faced.
Hagerstown manager Chance Wheeless was in a jovial mode after the game, kidding with reporters that Siller "made managing easy today."
"I didn't have hardly any decisions to make like I usually do," he said. "I didn't even have to come up with a pinch hitter."
In 10 starts this season Siller has compiled a 3-1 record and a 1.91 ERA.

It's a banner year for the Rome Braves, they have won the Florida State League South.
"There's so much pride in our room and on our roster, anything but a division title wouldn't have been acceptable," said reliever Shawn Siciliano. "In the playoffs we'll just have to take it one day at a time and keep battling."
The Braves this year have battled to a 36-12 mark, which is good for the club's 4th Florida State League South title.
