Grimsley Jr. Whips Brooklyn, 7-0
The London Mets shut out the Brooklyn Superbas 7-0 today behind the strong pitching of Ross Grimsley Jr.. Grimsley Jr. surrendered only 9 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 1.

Following the last out, Grimsley Jr. appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Brooklyn manager Lefty Sunkel, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Grimsley Jr.'s own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Superbas skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Mets press conference, Grimsley Jr. confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

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

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," London manager Taro Ichihara added.
