Joe DeMers needs just 84 pitches to throw first perfect game in Husky history

It took Joe DeMers only 84 pitches to make history.

The junior threw the first perfect game in Washington baseball history on Saturday as the Huskies beat UC Riverside 8-0 at Husky Ballpark.

DeMers struck out nine and got to a three-ball count just once, throwing the ninth no-hitter in school history. He’s the fourth Husky to throw nine innings of no-hit ball. The last no-hitter was on March 12, 2006 when Tim Lincecum and Nick Hagadone combined for a no-no.

Nick Kahle was 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI for UW (3-2).

No.
