Raisin Growers Get Zilch in 5-0 Loss to Buck$, Baker
The Border City Buck$ shut out the Fresno Raisin Growers 5-0 today behind the strong pitching of Tom Baker. Baker surrendered only 4 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 11.

Following the last out, Baker appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Fresno manager Hank Wyse, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Baker's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Raisin Growers skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Buck$ press conference, Baker confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Baker said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Border City manager Raúl Batista added.

So far this season Baker has compiled a 1-4 record with a 4.27 ERA.
