Syracuse Comes up Empty Against Placeholder Tuesday, August 7th , 1962 Triple A Placeholder put a hex on the Syracuse Hoplites in a sparkling 7-0 shutout performance, mesmerizing them on a 4-hit gem. "I felt good physically," he said after the game. "Everything's comfortable. You should pitch well when that's the case." The Hoplites were anything but comfortable against the 26-year-old Indianapolis Hoosiers hurler, who fanned 7 and gave up 4 walks. "Placeholder used his changeup very well, very effectively," said opposing manager . "He threw it in hitter's counts." Over the season Placeholder has thrown 93 innings and dished out 45 strikeouts with a 5-8 mark and a 4.35 ERA. |
