No Hitter! -
by chris_smeaton on June 23rd, 2021
Graham Fisher no hits Victoria.
Allowing only 3 walks, Fisher has added another gem to his career accolades which include several All Star nominations and a Cy Young Award.
The Highlanders won 13-0, which is perhaps one of few bright spots in a lack luster season. Manager Bennie Melvin hope to bring the team back to LL.4 but it has not worked out.
Maybe the team can rally for the rest of the season. They sit in 4th place but are only 4 games behind Portland in tight western division V.5.
