Sheffield Guns Down Albuquerque Thursday, June 8th, 2023 "That's one thing that has never changed in this game -- pitching can control hitting," the Gnats manager told reporters after today's game. The Human Beings ran into a buzzsaw as Pat Sheffield cut them down to size 3-0 with a 3-hit shutout. His skipper added, "He 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 whitewash the Nichols hurler doled out 1 walk and registered 8 strikeouts. In the postgame press conference his catcher said, "Pat goes out there and just goes about his business. I don't think he gets too concerned about what's going on. You can call any pitch and you know where he's going to be." Sheffield also got some praise from the Albuquerque manager. "He really kept us in check today. Everything looked to be moving. Seemed like the pitch was right down the middle and it went over down and away... we took some pathetic swings." |
