Collins takes bite out of the Piranhas

Jerry Collins of the Madison Chaos tossed a complete game no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Piranha yesterday. He was absolutely dominate as he struck out seven batters. His only blemish was a 8 pitch walk to Mateo Cruz in the fifth inning. The Chaos pounded out 10 hits in the first 7 innings but were unable to put any runs across the plate. But in the 8th inning with two outs,pinch hitter Magglio Aguilera crushed a ball to the upper deck in left field providing the only run Collins would need. The Chaos did push two more across in the ninth but Collins proved to be more than capable of letting the first run hold up as he induced three infield outs in the bottom of the ninth to complete the nohitter.
