Mendoza Sparkles in Shutout
Thursday, September 8th, 2033
There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching.
Andy Mendoza of the Scranton Escape blanked the Peoria Caterpillars, 3-0, at Hell Stadium today, and he did it the old-fashioned way. After finishing the 8-hit, complete-game shutout, he was all smiles.
"I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game," Mendoza said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance."
Mendoza walked 2 and struck out 6 in the victory.
"He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Caterpillars manager Roberto Martínez said later.
This season-to-date Mendoza has 2 wins and 4 losses and a 4.85 ERA.
