Ashcraft Throws No-Hitter in Darien Babe Ruth Game DARIEN, Conn. – Carter Ashcraft pitched a no-hitter for the Martion Chioffi Darien team in the 14/15-year-old Babe Ruth league.

The Trojans went 17-6 and won their first Class S state championship. But several key players graduated from that squad, and injuries have cost the Trojans the skills of several others Murphy was counting on this season. The state championship was an added burden, as teams now come gunning for the Trojans.
