Baseball (Boys V) Scores

Troy Barrett took the rock on Tuesday afternoon for the Trojans on a perfect day for baseball. Like the weather Barrett was also perfect on the mound. The Michigan City Wolves would send the minimum number of batters to the plate at fifteen and Barrett made thirteen of them whiff. I use the term loosely because several of those would be hitters could only stand there while the umpire called strike after strike. The Purdue commit used only fifty-nine pitches in which forty-seven found the strike zone. Only two batters made contact with a Barrett offering with both finding the glove future Kentucky Wildcat, Rob Czarniecki, in center. The first came after eleven consecutive K's to start the game and the second came on the next City at bat. The last two batters would go good morning, good afternoon, and good night to end the game that had the Wolves as the home team due to a weather forecast for Wednesday showed a high chance for storms. The senior southpaw is not a stranger to no-no's with this one being at least his third as a Trojan if memory serves me correctly and possibly a second perfect game. Barrett flirted with another no-hit bid with Merrillville last week but surrendered a lone knock. With a perfect game a win is a given, unlike a no-hitter where a walked hitter or one that reaches on an error can score and without the pitchers' team giving any run support a hurler can record a loss. The win is Barretts fourth to go with no losses on the year. Other numbers for the season resemble those from MLB The Show '26 and they are as follows: 13IP, 45 batters faced, 5 hits, 1 earned run, 1 walk, 32 strikeouts and 1 wild pitch (he is human). In the game Barrett also recorded his 200th strikeout, not in the game that would be a record, in his CHS career. On the offensive side, every Chesterton hitter notched at least one hit with Dylan Bradford(3-3, R, RBI, 2B) collecting three in three trips to the plate, including a double. Ethan Glassman(2-2, R, BB, 3B) and Barrett(2-3, 2R, 2RBI,2B), a .402 career hitter coming into the contest, recorded two knocks with Glassman crushing a triple and the latter drilling a two-bagger. Czarniecki(1-2, 2R, BB, K, 2B), the King of the Long Strike, Caden Hackett(1-2, BB, 2B), Eli McClelland(1-2, R, 2RBI), G Kirkland(1-1, 2RBI, 2B), Nate Redman(1-3, R), and Isaiah Prater(1-3, R, RBI) all had one hit a piece. The game was halted after the fifth inning due to the ten-run rule with a final score of 10-0.
