The Game: The Princeton Rays were on the losing end of a no hitter as they lost to the Danville Braves 13-0 in game two Tuesday night at Hunnicutt Field. Danville’s Cory Rasmus was unhitable as he threw a complete game (7 inning) no hitter while recording 9 strikeouts. The Danville offense was also hot as they pushed across 13 runs on 17 hits in the winning effort, all of which came without the help of a long ball. Cory Harrilchak walked to lead off the fist then advanced to second on a steal. Harrilchak later scored on am RBI single by Riaan Spanjer-Furstenberg giving the Braves a 1-0 lead.
Danville added two more in the second. Daniel Elorriaga-Matera singled home Robert Heffinger to score. The LV Ware delivered a sacrifice fly to score Matt Weaver and increase the lead to 3-0.
The scoring continued into the third. Riaan Spanjer-Furstenburg singled to lead off the inning, then advanced to second on a balk. Robert Hefflinger followed with an RBI double to score Spanjer-Furstenburg and add another run to the Danville lead.
The Braves added three more runs in the fourth as LV Ware, Cory Hatilchak and Riaan Spanker-Furstenberg crossed the plate to score. Danville posted six more runs in the top of the seventh to run the score up to 13-0, the final margin of victory.
