Caldwell County will carry a 19-10 record into postseason play after routing Livingston Central in the regular-season finale on Friday.
Three Tiger pitchers combined for a no-hitter as Caldwell blanked the Cardinals 15-0 in four innings on Senior Day at the VFW Ballpark in Princeton.
Scott Cortner, Drew Stevens and Spencer Robinson had six strikeouts and one walk.
Livingston (3-26) had just three baserunners — two reaching on errors. But a double play and a caught stealing meant Caldwell pitched to just one batter over the minimum.
A three-run first inning and a seven-run second put the Tigers in command 10-0.
Another run in the third and four more in the fourth ended the game on the mercy rule.
Stevens was the only player in the game with multiple hits, going 2-for-3 with a run batted in.
Cortner was 1-for-1 but drove in three runs and scored twice.
David Ginn was 1-for-1 and knocked in two.
Ari Wells and Ethan Ramage each had triples while Derek Wilson and Jack Roach each doubled, with Roach picking up two RBIs.
Presten Alfred and Mitchell Phelps each singled.
The win allowed Caldwell to extend its lengthy winning streak against Livingston. The Tigers have taken 21 straight from the Cardinals dating back to 2010.
Caldwell will be in action again on Saturday when it hosts the 7th District tournament.
The Tigers will face Hopkins County Central in semifinal action at approximately 1 p.m.
Madisonville-North Hopkins and Dawson Springs play the opener at 11 a.m.
