Tomlinson, on Top of His Game, Beats Los Angeles, 4-0
Tuesday, May 11th , 1976
Rick Tomlinson was in a mood to talk following the Cleveland Bobcats contest against the Los Angeles Blockbusters, expounding to BNN reporters on his pitching philosophy. He had good reason to be excitable, having tossed a complete game shutout of the Blockbusters, 4-0.

"There are three important elements in pitching success: location, location, and location," Tomlinson said. "I was hitting my spots time and time again."

The right-hander blanked Los Angeles on a 6-hitter, allowing 1 walk and racking up 3 strikeouts.

For the season, Tomlinson has a record of 3 wins and 2 losses in 7 appearances. He has an ERA of 2.68 and has fanned 31 batters in 47 innings.
