YES, this is the same Kid I posted about last week When at that time it was 3 No hitters.


The lanky left-hander struck out 17 to help his team beat rival Pasco High 5-0 in front of a full house of several hundred spectators.
"I never thought this would happen," he said. "I'm just having so much right now."
Schuster's streak began April 3. He's piled up 60 strikeouts in the four games, helping Mitchell to a 19-3 record. He's 7-0 on the season.
He said he was trying not to think about the streak, but late in the game he asked his outfielders to take a few steps because he didn't want to give up a bloop hit.
Mitchell coach Scot Wilcox called the performance "vintage Schuster."
"I'll tell you what, he's got command of every single pitch," Wilcox said. "His curve ball, his slider, his change-up, he was just spotting it nicely. He was keeping their hitters off balance."
Schuster said the streak has been harder on his mother, Sharon, than it's been on him.
"I've got the confidence, and she's over there biting her nails and stuff," he said. "I'm having fun with it and she's nervous. She's probably going to make me cry as soon as I see her."
Schuster, whose fastball tops 90 mph, has signed to play at the University of Florida next year but hasn't ruled out going straight to professional baseball. The record for consecutive no-hitters in high school baseball is six.

I live in Pasco.........

When and where does this kid pitch next? I may go out and try and watch him try and notch his 5th straight no-hitter.

You can BET on the fact that he will not be a Gator! He would be stupid to go to college and miss out on the signing bonuses. He will be in A-ball next season.

He is still 3 NO HITTERS short of the record.

Colt Malloy from Texas in '07 pitched 6 no-hitters in a row

A-ball? If the Yanks take him he'll be the #4 starter next April.

I heard the reporter say, the Kid was seen with some guy before the game.
They said this man handed Schuster a $100 Bill and some Coupons.

The Line on the game Dropped to Plus money after the Exchange. :laugh:

Tough way to lose the streak with team losing out in State playoffs. Can you imagine the pressure this poor kid was under?

I wish I was that poor kid. No way he goes to college. His signing bonus sets him for life if he makes it or not.
 

Life is tough. It's tougher if you're stupid.

In today's paper, it said that he thanked the kid who hit the double because this whole circus was finally over.
