Busby Tosses 9-0 Shutout Thursday, July 27th , 1972 The Lake Clear Seagulls ran into a buzzsaw at Motley Crue Field today as Motley Crue starter Steve Busby cut them down to size, 9-0, tossing a 4-hit shutout. "That's one thing that has never changed in this game -- pitching can control hitting," Crue manager Chad Caine told reporters after the game. "Steve knows exactly what he's doing. He's not going to throw you a good pitch until you make him throw one." In the complete game win, the Motley hurler doled out no walks and registered 4 strikeouts. His stats sheet for the year shows Busby has managed to hold opponents to a .345 average in no relief appearances, while putting up 6-8 record with 67 strikeouts and 51 walks in 134.1 innings. He has a 4.89 ERA with no saves. |
