Morales Pitches 3-0 Shutout for Atlanta
|
The Montreal Habitants had no answer for Atlanta Generals pitcher Alfredo Morales. They failed to score a single run against him, losing, 3-0. Montreal managed only 8 hits off Morales, who had 4 strikeouts.
The extraordinarily popular Morales got a standing ovation from the hometown crowd as he left the field, the applause continuing until he returned from the dugout to tip his cap to the crowd.
"Generals fans are the best fans, in my opinion," he said. "It's a great feeling to throw a shutout under any circumstances, but to do it with the crowd behind you like that is just incredible."
So far this year, Morales has made 2 starts, tossed 40.1 innings, struck out 27 batters and walked 14. His record is 4-4 with a 3.57 ERA and he has limited opposing teams to a .296 batting average.
