| Beacons, Clark Blank Detroit, 4-0 | There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching.
Al Clark of the Boston Beacons blanked the Detroit Lancers, 4-0, at Thompson Field, and he did it the old-fashioned way. After finishing the 5-hit, complete-game shutout, he was all smiles.
"I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game," Clark said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance."
Clark walked 1 and struck out 5 in the victory.
"He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Lancers manager Frank McGrath said later.
This season in 6 starts, Al Clark has a record of 3-1 with 21 strikeouts in 41 innings and a 3.51 ERA. | |
