Morris Tosses 4-0 Shutout Saturday, August 30th , 1997 The Albuquerque Dodgers shut out the San Antonio Missions 4-0 today behind the strong pitching of Matt Morris. Morris surrendered only 2 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6. Following the last out, Morris appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for San Antonio manager Alvaro Robles, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Morris's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart. The Missions skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Dodgers press conference, Morris confirmed that it was regarding the celebration. "He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Morris said. "And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Albuquerque manager Vache Bahadurian added. This year Morris has compiled a 8-0 mark with a 1.63 ERA. |
