Jun 16, 2025; Omaha, Neb, USA; Arkansas Razorbacks starting pitcher Gage Wood (14) throws against the Murray State Racers during the first inning at Charles Schwab Field. Mandatory Credit: Steven Branscombe-Imagn Images OMAHA, Neb. — Arkansas right-hander Gage Wood pitched just the third no-hitter in Men’s College World Series history, striking out 19 Murray State batters to propel Arkansas past the Racers 3-0 in Monday’s elimination game.
Wood flirted with the first-ever College World Series perfect game, going seven full innings before allowing a baserunner. A leadoff hit-by-pitch on Murray State’s Dom Decker in the eighth inning ended the perfect game, but Wood sat down the next six batters in order to close out the championship series’ first no-hitter since Oklahoma State’s Jim Wixson in 1960. The first was posted by Texas’ Jim Ehrler in 1950.
Wood also approached the MCWS record for strikeouts in a game. His 19th on Jonathan Hogart to end the game moved Wood one shy of Steve Arlin’s 20 thrown for Ohio State in 1965.
The first no-hitter in the MCWS in 65 years required 119 pitches (83 for strikes), but Wood said his fastball felt great throughout the game.
“I didn’t throw a pitch out of the stretch for a while,” Wood told ESPN when asked when he realized how close he was getting to a no-hitter.
Wood gave the Razorbacks a cushion to come alive in the seventh inning after Murray State starter Isaac Silva pitched his own outstanding game.
Silva allowed just one run and six hits in six innings with the Razorbacks scoring on Charles Davalan’s RBI single to drive in Reese Robinett in the third inning.
Arkansas batters gave Wood some run support in the seventh inning. After consecutive singles from Justin Thomas Jr. and Davalan, Wehiwa Aloy delivered a run-scoring double to drive in Thomas. The run punctuated Thomas’ first career four-hit game, as he went 4-for-4 at the dish.
Davalan later came home on a fielding error in the outfield. Both runs came against Murray State reliever Graham Kelham.
Murray State (0-2) concludes its first-ever College World Series run with Monday’s loss. Arkansas (1-1) advances to another elimination game on Tuesday against the loser of Monday evening’s UCLA-LSU matchup.

Devatenáctiletý úkaz v NHL. Kanadské zázračné dítě hraje jako legenda
Loňská jednička draftu by mohla klidně hrát na blížícím se šampionátu dvacítek v Minnesotě, místo toho však kanadský útočník vyhlíží spíš únorový start na olympiádě v Miláně. Výkony, jakými pravidelně oblažuje fanoušky, ho k tomu každopádně předurčují. Další takový předvedl při výhře 6:3 nad Calgary. Celebrini měl při ní bilanci 2+2. Jeho vítězný gól ze třetí třetiny bude jistě ozdobou sezonních sestřihů.Mladík narozený ve Vancouveru měl kupu štěstí. Jeho střelu Dustin Wolf vyrazil, ale od Celebriniho kolena se puk dostal do sítě. Ovšem nadšení vzbudila hlavně elegantní otočka, kdy si teenager ze San Jose mazácky převzal puk, a ještě se zbavil beka Kevina Bahla.„Jenom jsem reagoval podle dění na ledě,“ nezveličoval Celebrini krásný moment, ze kterého byli všichni paf. Všechno v jeho podání vypadalo tak jednoduše. „I kdyby to neskončilo gólem, šlo o něco neuvěřitelného,“ prohlásil ostřílený forvard Tyler Toffoli.Pro pořádek, tuhle lahůdku opravdu nepředvedl Connor McDavid nebo […]

NFL pass-rusher rankings ahead of Week 16

Starmer urges Abramovich to transfer £2.5bn from Chelsea sale to Ukraine
Sir Keir Starmer has warned Roman Abramovich that "the clock is ticking" for him to donate £2.5bn from the sale of Chelsea to Ukraine.The Prime Minister told MPs on Wednesday that ministers have issued a licence allowing the proceeds from the sale of Chelsea to be transferred to a new foundation for humanitarian causes in Ukraine. Speaking in the House of Commons, he said: "My message to Abramovich is this: the clock is ticking. "Honour the commitment you made and pay up now, and if you don't, we are prepared to go to court so every penny reaches those whose lives have been torn apart by Putin's illegal war."Abramovich sold the club in May 2022 after he was sanctioned following Vladimir Putin's invasion earlier that year. The oligarch had pledged to donate the proceeds from the sale to the people […]
