Herbert Hurls Rays to Shutout Victory
Sunday, September 16th, 2029
It wasn't easy but the Tampa Bay Rays made it look that way.

Starter Ernie Herbert shut out the Houston Astros despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Tampa Bay Rays cruised to victory, 6-0. Herbert allowed only 1 hit and rang up 6 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

Presently Herbert has a 8-5 mark in 11 starts with a 3.71 ERA. He has given up 115 hits in 116.1 innings, struck out 67 and issued 42 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .258 batting average against him.
