Farooqi Hurls Drillers to 5-0 Shutout Win
A favor to his bullpen. That's what Syed Farooqi was doing at Sam Houston Field, as he blanked the Twin Cities Northmen, 5-0.

"I went out there to try to eat up innings and help out our bullpen," the Houston Drillers right-hander said later. "I felt I had my good stuff, and it turned out my command was solid."

Farooqi notched 5 strikeouts, surrendered 4 walks, allowed 2 hits, and kept the bullpen phone quiet all day long.

This season, Farooqi has rung up 13 wins and 6 losses in 27 games. He has an ERA of 2.29 and has fanned 139 batters in 208.2 innings.
