Erskine 'Lights Out' in Shutout Win Saturday, July 22nd , 2051 There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching. Alex Erskine of the Cheyenne Buffaloes blanked the Hershey Bears, 4-0, at Buffalo Park today, and he did it the old-fashioned way. After finishing the 4-hit, complete-game shutout, he was all smiles. "I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game," Erskine said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance." Erskine walked 2 and struck out 6 in the victory. "He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Bears manager said later. So far this year Erskine has made no relief appearances with no saves, thrown 93 innings and struck out 58 with a 7-5 record. View Boxscore |
