Canniff King of Fling with No-Hitter Thursday, September 19th , 2041 Kevin Canniff was feeling calm about his no-hitter -- until the last three outs. "You really become conscious of every pitch at that point," he said. "The adrenaline level kicks up even higher. Everybody in the ballpark knows a no-hitter is on the line. The crowd is on its feet. One mistake and it's all over." There were no mistakes to be had for Canniff on this day at Keys Ballpark. The FCL Mexico City Padres right-hander was in complete command, not allowing the FCL Ottawa Lynx a single base hit in the 3-0 victory. "Obviously, you never think this will happen," he said to BNN reporters after the game. "I don't know if it's really sunk in yet." Canniff faced 28 batters, had 20 strikeouts and gave up 1 walk in a dominating effort. "He was on from the get-go," Lynx manager said. "He was hitting his spots and keeping us off balance. It was a great game by him." Canniff has taken the mound for no relief appearances this season, nailing down no saves while notching a 17-2 record with a 1.30 ERA. The FCL Mexico City reliever has limited opposing batters to a .084 batting average. View Boxscore View Game Log |
