Sullivan throws no-hitter in BGA victory
TULLAHOMA, Tenn. – Tyler Sullivan threw the third no-hitter in state tournament history to lead Battle Ground Academy to a 10-0 victory over Chattanooga McCallie in the first TSSAA Division II State Baseball Tournament on Wednesday.
Sullivan helped his own cause with a home run over the centerfield fence in the fourth inning. Sullivan finished the game with six strikeouts and walked just two McCallie batters.
The Wildcats (21-9) scored three runs in the second inning powered by a two-out, two-run double by Hunter Gilbert, who finished the game with two hits.
McCallie (19-7) had only one threat in the game when Sean Robinson reached on an error and Chris Paryse drew a two-out walk. Sullivan came back to strike out the last batter to finish the game in five innings due to the 10-run rule.
BGA will play the winner of Wednesday’s Baylor School-Cordova Evangelical Christian game on Thursday at 5 p.m. at Grider Stadium. McCallie will play the loser at Grider on Thursday at 10 a.m.
