 | Mesa Pitches Shutout
Monday, June 17th, 1991: "He was too darn good for us today," grumbled the Minnesota manager after his club suffered a 3-0 shutout at the hands of Jose Mesa of the Baltimore Orioles. He held the Minnesota Twins scoreless in a 6-hit whitewash.
Mesa was in a zone of his own most of the game and finished with 9 strikeouts and 1 walk in a strong outing.
In a postgame quote his own skipper added, "He pitched his butt off, had good velocity, good movement and had those guys off balance. Jose did a whale of a pitching job."
So far this season Mesa has a record of 5-6 with 63 strikeouts and 33 walks in 105.2 innings and a 3.41 ERA. |
