Farooqi Tosses Shutout Against Los Angeles
Wednesday, June 23rd , 1976
The Los Angeles Pobladores were almost helpless in their 1-0 loss to the Twin Cities Northmen and hurler Syed Farooqi. Farooqi kept the Pobladores confused all game, spinning a 4-hit shutout.
"Tip your hat to Farooqi," Los Angeles manager Alex Wobbema said in a postgame interview. "He kept us off balance all night."
The 34-year-old right-hander had 2 walks and 9 strikeouts in a strong performance.
"It just happened to be one of those games where even when I made mistakes, they either fouled them off or someone would make a fine defensive play," Farooqi said. "It was just one of those games that things went my way."
For the season, Farooqi has a record of 5 wins and 6 losses in 15 appearances. He has an ERA of 4.37 and has fanned 66 batters in 107 innings.
