The Badlands Big Sticks secured a 4-3 victory over the Bismarck Larks in a 10-inning game on Saturday night. The Big Sticks maintained a no-hitter until the ninth inning, with David Ladjevic pitching six innings without allowing a hit and Brady Owens adding two more no-hit innings.

With the Big Sticks leading 3-2, Ricardo Aponte disrupted the no-hitter by hitting a double down the left field line. Grant Ross then advanced Aponte to third base with a ground ball, and Cristian Bernardini drove him in to tie the game, forcing extra innings.

In the 10th inning, Connor Meidroth's single to center field moved Maddox Mcdonald to third base. Mcdonald scored on a sacrifice fly by Big Sticks All-Star Connor Massimini.
