Beckett Sparkles in Shutout Thursday, September 8th, 2033 There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching. Pat Beckett of the Rock River Rats blanked the Boise Hawks, 4-0, at Basque Block Field today, and he did it the old-fashioned way. After finishing the 7-hit, complete-game shutout, he was all smiles. "I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game," Beckett said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance." Beckett walked 1 and struck out 9 in the victory. "He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Hawks manager Tom Becker said later. This season-to-date Beckett has 4 wins and 5 losses and a 4.55 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
