Placeholder Twirls 5-0 Shutout Wednesday, August 22nd , 1962 "Good pitching beats good hitting" is an old baseball adage. Well, good pitching also beats bad hitting. Single A Placeholder of the Daytona Beach Islanders proved the point at Pensacola FL minor league park today, holding the Pensacola Terriers to 4 hits in a complete game shutout victory. "Placeholder made us look real bad today," Terriers manager said in a postgame interview. "He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking." Placeholder had 2 strikeouts and gave up 1 walk as the Islanders took the 5-0 win. His record this season is 5-10 in 16 starts and Placeholder has a 4.92 ERA. |
