College World Series: Mississippi State beats Virginia's no-hit bid with six-run comeback win

Things looked bleak for Mississippi State baseball entering the top of the eighth of their College World Series game vs. Virginia.
The Bulldogs’ bats were deathly silent against Virginia’s Griff McGarry, who carried an intact no-hitter into the inning to give his team a 4-0 lead over Mississippi State. To that point of the game, he had allowed only two base runners: one on a walk, another hit-by-pitch.
McGarry gave up a lead-off walk to start the inning before designated hitter Kellum Clark finally broke the no-hit bid — and, more importantly, put the Bulldogs on the board — with a two-run home run.

With the no-hitter no longer on the table, Cavaliers coach Brian O’Connor finally dipped into his bullpen. McGarry finished the day with seven shutout innings, striking out eight batters on 98 pitches.
