Double A Placeholder of the Austin Senators proved the point at Austin TX minor league park today, holding the Amarillo Yellers to 5 hits in a complete game shutout victory. "Placeholder made us look real bad today," Yellers manager said in a postgame interview. "He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking."
