On Saturday June 1, Chris Sandini threw a no hitter as the Revere Rockies defeated the East Boston Knights 3-0. Sandini walked one and struck out six in completing the no hitter. With the win, Sandini improves to 2-0. The Rockies remain undefeated on the season at 5-0.

2019 is Sandini’s tenth season in the Yawkey League. Sandini began his Yawkey League career in 2008 with the Bluefish. In his three season with the Bluefish, Sandini was part of back to back championships in 2008 and 2009. After one season in the Park League, Sandini returned to the Yakwey League with Revere.

The no hitter is Sandini’s second with the Rockies. His first no-hitter came back on July 1, 2012 when he no hit the South Boston Saints.

Congrats Chris.
