Castro Shuts Out Seattle, 4-0
|
The Houston Drillers shut out the Seattle Emeralds, 4-0, behind the strong pitching of Francisco Castro. Castro surrendered only 6 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 5.
Following the last out, Castro appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Seattle manager Mark Velez, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Castro's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Emeralds skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Drillers press conference, Castro confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Castro said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Houston manager Steven Palps added.
To date this season, Castro is 8-5 with 19 starts and an ERA of 2.73 with 79 strikeouts in 135.1 innings.
