Lionetti sat down nine batters on strikes, and only allowed one walk in the 4-0 win. The stunned young star could barely believe it when speaking after the game. “I didn’t think we were going to make it this far in the Williamsport run,” Lionetti told the New York Post. “I threw a no-hitter in a championship game. … I didn’t think I was going to do that [either].”
