Bradley fires no-hitter in 10-run rule win at Placid

On Sunday right-handed pitcher Austin Bradley did something no Rambler had done since the team's rebirth in 2004. Bradley tossed a no-hitter as Key West breezed to an 10-0 victory in eight innings at Placid. The win gave the Ramblers their 11th in the past 12 games and bumped their overall mark to 17-5.

Bradley, a member of the Ellsworth Community College baseball team, has been another dependable arm for a dominant Rambler pitching staff in 2014. After Sunday's outing, Bradley has allowed just a single run in 24 innings of work, giving him a near spotless 0.38 ERA over six appearances.

As part of Key West's 11-hit attack, Kenny Capesius, Brett LaMere, Ben Oglesby and Luis Reyes all went 2-for-4. The Ramblers got one home run apiece from LaMere, Oglesby and Andrew Redman, who has a team high four long balls on the year.

Coach John Knabel even drove in a pair of runs with a base hit in the top of the eighth. The two-run single allowed the Ramblers to win by the 10-run rule as Sam Nelman took the loss for host Placid.

Key West returns to action on Wednesday for an EIHL game at Rickardsville. First pitch is slated for 7 p.m. The Ramblers sport an EIHL record of 5-1.
