Shurtleff Guns Down Generals
The Boston Terriers shut out the Atlanta Generals, 2-0, behind the strong pitching of Bruce Shurtleff. Shurtleff surrendered only 11 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 3.

Following the last out, Shurtleff appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Shurtleff's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Generals skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Terriers press conference, Shurtleff confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Shurtleff said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Boston manager Jonah Placeholder added.

This season, Shurtleff has a 4-2 record with a 3.38 ERA in 9 starts.
