UNbelievable! Posted by Dave Mast, to Everyone
Apr 17, 08:49 pm ETOne of the little Mastadons pulled off a rarity tonight on the diamond. Freshman Neil "Nigel" Mast fired a no-hitter at the Dover freshman Tornadoes, coming within a routine fly-ball drop in right field of a perfect game. Struck out four, walked none, and only went to three balls to one hitter. Far from overpowering on the mound, he simply changed speeds, and let his defense do the job. He threw a grand total of 60 pitches in the six inning 10-0 contest, tossing a meager 18 over the final three frames. I get to brag tonight — at least a little bit! If he never gets another hitter out again, at least he's got that one.

Congrats to the Mini Mast !
My buddy Dave doesn't brag about his boys often and when it does, it's for good reason. Congrats to Neil on pitching a game he'll remember (and, like Dave, talk about) for the rest of his life.
