Zerbato Throws No-Hitter for Post 68 Legion Team
WESTIELD, Mass. – Camden Zerbato fired a no-hitter Tuesday to lead the Pittsfield Post 68-1 American Legion Baseball team to an 8-0 win over Westfield.
Zerbato struck out eight and walked just two in the victory.
“Camden isn’t in our normal pitching rotation but as the regular season is wrapping up, and our pitchers were still resting from their pitch counts – I told him he would start tonight and he wanted the ball,” Post 68-1 coach Dusty Burdette said. “He is a gamer. He does anything you ask him too. I’ve coached Camden since he was 12 years old, and this is the last year I will coach him and for him to do that in his last year with Legion was incredible.”
Zerbato helped his cause by going 1-for-3 at the plate.
Simon Mele led Pittsfield’s offense, going 2-for-4 with a double and a pair of RBIs.
Jay Codey was 1-for-3 with a double and drove in two runs. Gavin O’Donnell was 1-for-4 with a single and two RBIs.
Post 68-1 (10-1) is home on Wednesday to face Monson Post 241 at Buddy Pellerin Field at Clapp Park.
