Kartodirdjo Hurls No-Hitter Friday, August 18th, 2023 The Kingwood Knights relied on no-hit stuff from Bowo Kartodirdjo to defeat the Chippewa River Chiefs 4-0 at The Reservation. "It's quite a thrill," a candid Kartodirdjo told the media afterward, "This is a top-notch league. A no-hitter against any team in the league is something special. I can't believe I did it." To get his name logged in the BOL records, he stopped Chippewa cold, with no hits, surrendering 3 walks and fanning 8 batters, facing only 30 batters. Kartodirdjo said in a postgame interview, "Games like this are something special. They don't come around very often, if ever. I knew from the fifth inning that I had a no-hitter working. I just tried to get it out of my mind, but you just can't. They have too many scoreboards in the park. They are everywhere you look." In a jovial mood, his manager kiddingly told the reporters, "He definitely made it easy for me today. I didn't have any great decisions to make like I usually have to do. Didn't even have to come up with a pinch hitter. I love it when my pitchers pitch a no-hitter." Currently Kartodirdjo has a record of 9-3 with 150 strikeouts and 51 walks in 132.1 innings and a 3.26 ERA. |
