There's another fantastic pitching matchup out west as Missouri's Kyle Gibson and Arizona State's Mike Leake are facing off against one another right now. I wish this one was on TV or the internet but no such luck.
Through 6 innings Leake has a no hitter going:
6 INN, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 6 K
The Sun Devils were able to touch Gibson up for a few runs but overall he is pitching very well too:
6 INN, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 9 K
I'll keep this one updated as the game moves along. It would be a very impressive feat if Leake is able to hold on and no hit the Tigers.
Update: Leake made it through 7 innings with the no-no before Andrew Thigpen broke it up with a double. Still a 2-0 game but Mizzou has a runner on 2nd with no outs.
Update 2: Arizona State holds on to win 2-1. I think its been about 5 years since the Sun Devils played in a game with so few runs scored.
The final lines for both pitchers:
Mike Leake: 8 INN, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 10 K
Kyle Gibson: 7 INN, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 8 K
There were no doubt a lot of scouts on hand tonight in Tempe and I'm sure everyone of them came away impressed with both kids.
