Rhee Mows Down Seibu (Ni-Gun) in No-Hitter
Saturday, June 22nd, 2019
Dae-Eun Rhee of the Marines was standing behind the mound when the scoreboard caught his eye, confirming what he already knew: He was one out from a no-hitter. He froze ... for a couple of seconds he didn't move.
"This hitter is the last one," Rhee told himself. Then he collected himself and finished one of his greatest performances ever.
The Chiba Lotte (Ni-Gun) hurler no-hit the Seibu (Ni-Gun) Lions 2-0 at Lions Baseball ground 2, finishing with 1 walks and 10 strikeouts, facing only 28 batters.
Rhee admitted to the press, "I knew from the fifth inning on it was a no-hitter, but really didn't worry about it until the last out. I just wanted to win the game until then ... then I wanted the no-hitter, too."
This year Rhee has recorded a 4-5 mark. In 5 starts he has fanned 57 batters in 47.2 innings with a 2.45 ERA.
