The 2021 season has been the year of the no-hitter in Major League Baseball. The same moniker can apply to this year's Little League World Series—at least for South Dakota's Gavin Weir.
Weir threw his second no-hitter of the tournament on Wednesday as his team defeated California, 1-0, to advance to the finals of the Tom Seaver bracket on Saturday. He struck out 14 hitters over six innings five days after pitching in a combined no-hitter on Friday against Louisiana.
It was the fourth no-hitter of the summer for Weir, who has struck out 114 out of 132 batters faced across eight games.
