Melendez No Hits West Broward For District Championship

Posted by Joe Chacko on Apr 27 2011 at 05:00PM PDT

Mike Melendez wasn't perfect but he managed to work around 4 walks and a balk to no-hit the Bobcats 11-0 for the District 12-6A Championship in a 5 inning run ruled game. The lefthander staked himself to an early lead hitting his 5th HR of the season in the 1st inning, a 3 run shot over right centerfield. Melendez(7-2) struck out 3 and had some stellar defensive plays made behind him especially from catcher Kyle Schmidt.

Ricky Santiago went 3 for 3 with a walk, RBI and 2 runs scored. Matthew Figueroa, Robert Collin, Ryan Lozada and Danny Zardon each had 2 hits in the game and Zack Collins added a walk and an RBI double.

Robert Collin added a spectacular over the shoulder catch to preserve the no hitter on the final play of the game.

Flanagan(20-2) will host District 11 runner-up South Plantation on Tuesday May 3rd in a Regional Quarterfinal @7:00pm
