Mr. No-hitter: Diman pitcher throws third no-no of the season

COHASSET — Sam Perry has done it again.

The Diman junior right-hander tossed his third no-hitter of the season on Tuesday, blanking non-league opponent Cohasset on the road, 10-0, at Cohasset High School.

Perry went the distance for the Bengals (11-2), allowing no hits, no walks while striking 16 batters. The only baserunner came on a hit batter in the fifth inning. He faced just 22 batters.

"I'm going to be honest, I threw up in the back of the mound because I was so nervous," Perry said when asked what was he thinking in the final inning. "I should have had a perfect game. This one was better than the other two no-hitters."

Byron Bell, Alex Carvalho and Cameron Falcon each collected two hits in the win for Diman. The Bengals pounded out 12 hits overall.

Perry also had a single and sacrifice fly offensively.
