Foresters Best Kings in Pitching Duel | The Cleveland Foresters picked up a win at Forester Stadium, taking down the Brooklyn Kings, 1-0. Starting pitcher Ducky Davis was a big reason why. Davis, now 15-7, was the winner. In 8.2 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 5, walking 3, and allowing no runs. Cleveland goes to 87-58. The win puts them 9 games up in their division.
Ivey Henley, who finished 4th in the CA in on-base percentage with .402 last year, aided the Cleveland cause with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the bottom of the first. For the game, the left fielder drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances.
Davis called the win "a lesson in teamwork." | |
