No-hitters have been a somewhat regular occurrence in Major League Baseball this season, but Justin Campbell threw just the ninth in Cowboy history Saturday.
Oklahoma State thumped Kansas 19-0 in Lawrence, as Campbell threw OSU’s first no-hitter since Joe Giordanella had a seven-inning no-no against Oklahoma in 1985.
Campbell, a second-year freshman, threw the full nine innings where he stuck out 11. He was an eighth-inning walk away from a perfect game. It’s just the third no-hitter from a Cowboy pitcher in a game that lasted nine innings.

Campbell entered the game in a comfortable spot, as OSU led 9-0 before he even got to the mound in the bottom of the first inning.
