No-Hitter

In a classic pitcher’s duel that had the makings of a no-hit battle deep into the late innings, the Seattle Mariners and Atlanta Braves engaged in an intense, low-scoring affair Monday night. But it was Mitch Garver who ultimately stole the show, crushing a dramatic two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the 9th to lift the Mariners to a 2-1 victory over the visiting Braves. The game was a masterclass in pitching excellence from the very first pitch.

In the battle of Eugene softball titans, it was Sheldon’s Olivia Gilhuber who emerged victorious with a stellar performance against cross-town rivals Willamette on Tuesday. The hard-throwing righty was utterly dominant, spinning two perfect innings without allowing a hit or run. Gilhuber’s gem was the decisive factor as Sheldon edged out Willamette by a narrow score. With the win, the Irish have now won an eye-popping 21 consecutive home games dating back to last season, cementing their reputation as a formidable force at their friendly confines.
