Still scoreless after 3. Knaak has been as good so far as Darden was last night, but the Tigers' bats are still cold!



SCORELESS AFTER 3.

We're still scoreless headed to the 7th! Another great pitching performance by Knaak, but the Tigers suffered their first shutout of the season last night and are looking at another one today! They have not scored in 19 innings. Almost inconceivable with this offense! Knaak is working on a one-hitter with 7 K's and only one walk.


SCORELESS AFTER 6.

Knaak gives up a leadoff single but gets his 8th K to end the inning! The freshman has matched his career long of 7 innings pitched.



SCORELESS AT THE STRETCH.

HINDERLEIDER DELIVERS!!! Single scores the first run of the game! Tigers finally on the board after 19 scoreless innings. 2 on with no outs for Nawrocki. Ought to sac bunt here and get an insurance run.

Yep, Nawrocki sac bunts the runners to 2nd and 3rd. One out for Purify. Need a sac fly at least!

PURIFY DELIVERS!!! Double makes it 2-0 with one out! 2nd and 3rd for 9 hitter McCladdie with Cannarella on deck. Big insurance run!

MCCLADDIE DELIVERS!!! He reaches on a sac bunt, and 2 more runs score to make it 4-0! Lol when it rains, it pours. 19 scoreless innings and now 4 in the 7th! Guess they heard Danny Cannon's plea for runs. RISP with one out for leadoff man Cannarella!

Ugh Wright grounds into a double play. Big inning though, finally!

Knaak strikes out the first 2 and gets a fly to go 1-2-3! What a game for the freshman! 10 K's, one walk and just 2 hits in a career-long 8 innings.



TIGERS LEAD 5-0 M8.

Wow, Bissetta pinches for Nawrocki again. Bakich made the same move in a big spot last night, and Bissetta struck out to strand the runners on 2nd and 3rd.

Bissetta comes through this time! Single loads the bases with one out for Purify, who doubled in a run last inning.

PURIFY DELIVERS AGAIN!!! Single makes it 6-0 with bases loaded and one out for 9 hitter McCladdie, who reached on a bunt last inning, scoring 2 runs.

DOUBLE PLAY!!



TIGERS WIN 7-0!!!



They avoid the sweep with their second shutout win of the season. They also won 7-0 at Miami a couple weeks ago. I'll have post-game interviews posted in a bit!
