No-Hit Masterpiece by Jobe
Tuesday, December 12th , 2023
The United States starter Jackson Jobe said he was standing behind the mound when the scoreboard caught his eye, confirming what he already knew: He was one out from a no-hitter. For a couple of seconds, he didn't move.
"I took a breath and told myself 'This is the last one,'" Jobe recalled.
The right-hander collected himself, got the final out, and finished one of the greatest performances of his career.
The The United States right-hander no-hit the Italy, 21-0, at The United States Park, finishing with 1 walks and 14 strikeouts, facing only 29 batters.
"I knew for a while it was a no-hitter," Jobe admitted later. "But I really didn't worry about it until the last out. I thought I just wanted to win the game, and then I realized I wanted the no-hitter, too."
