Behind Visco, Pittsburgh Blanks New York, 1-0
Tuesday, July 29th , 1975
The New York Knickerbockers manager was philosophical in the clubhouse following a shutout loss to the Pittsburgh Industrials. The Knickerbockers were overpowered by Pittsburgh starter Dennis Visco, who hurled his club to victory, 1-0.
"It was just one of those games -- shake it off and do better next time," Timothy Widholm said.
Over 9 innings, Visco blanked New York on 5 hits with no walks and 12 strikeouts.
"I kept them off balance. I could tell a lot of them were late on fastballs because they were fouling them off. Once you see that, it sets them up for other pitches," Visco said.
"I set them up, where if they chased one breaking ball, they were going to chase another one."
Visco has posted a 8-6 record for the year with a 4.04 ERA. Teams are hitting .268 against him and he has rung up 72 strikeouts in 122.2 innings.
