 | Russell at His Best, Whips River Chiefs Tuesday, August 13th, 2013: In an almost effortless performance, Bill Russell of the Princes shot down the River Chiefs 8-0 on a 4-hit shutout.
His skipper said, "Bill was just locating so well and using his pitches... not leaving anything over the plate."
Russell recorded 7 strikeouts and no walks in a strong outing.
In the postgame press conference, the Chippewa manager said, "When he needed to make pitches, he elevated his game like he can and we couldn't get a key hit off him."
This year in 19 starts, Russell has recorded 11 wins and absorbed 5 losses. He has pitched 126 innings, allowed 109 hits, struck out 126 and has a 2.57 ERA. |   |
