Norris Magnificent in 4-0 Detroit Triumph | Jim Norris was throwing strikes early and getting ahead in the count, his manager said after the Detroit Dynamos hurler tossed a 4-hit, complete game shutout against the Washington Eagles.
"I went right after each hitter, trying to get ahead in the count," said Norris. "I wanted them to swing the bats and keep my pitch count down. It worked. I felt strong the whole game, even in the last two innings."
Norris walked 5 and struck out 8 in the 4-0 victory.
This season, Norris has worked 131.2 innings with 76 strikeouts en route to a 5-10 record and a 4.37 ERA. | |
