Reply to "HS pitching a complete game"

During my son's senior year the varsity had only 5 games (out of a 20 game season + 6 playoff games) where the starting pitcher pitched a complete game. Four were by our ace - one was a perfect game that was also only 5 innings and one no hitter. Two of the complete games were late in the regular season - one against a very weak team. The other was the no hitter against a district rival whom we were battling for the district lead. Our ace had good command that day and his pitch count was under 100 pitches for the day.

We only had 3 pitchers in the rotation with a couple of "emergency" pitchers coach could put out there if he really needed to. Fortunately he never had to.
