Last night at the ISC World Tournament, Australian\/Gremlins ace Jack Besgrove didn\u2019t just pitch a no-hitter\u2014he delivered the most dominant performance in tournament history, recording all 21 outs via strikeout in a seven-inning masterpiece. Allowing only two walks, Besgrove\u2019s flawless 21-strikeout game marked the first time since the tournament\u2019s inception in 1947 that a pitcher achieved such perfection, etching his name into softball lore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Score: Bear Creek Gremlins 6, Toronto Batmen 0<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The game remained a scoreless pitchers\u2019 duel through five innings until the Gremlins erupted for six runs in the sixth. <strong>Zenon Winters<\/strong>\u2019 two-RBI single broke the deadlock, scoring Matthiew Roy and Ben Enoka, who had walked earlier in the inning. The rally surged with Jerome Raemaki\u2019s single and run scored, Ladislao Malarczuk\u2019s RBI single and run, and Brian Abrey\u2019s two-RBI double. A sacrifice fly by Abellardo Penuelas and multiple walks, including an intentional walk to Ben Enoka, capped the six-run inning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pitching Lines:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Jack Besgrove (Bear Creek Gremlins): 7 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 21 K.
