Holmes Tosses 1-0 Shutout for Atlanta
"Good pitching beats good hitting" is an old baseball adage.

Well, good pitching also beats bad hitting.

Harvey Holmes of the Atlanta Peaches proved the point at Johnston Park, holding the Birmingham Ironmen to 3 hits in a complete game shutout victory.

"Holmes made us look real bad today," Ironmen manager Cal Jones said in a postgame interview. "He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking."

Holmes had 3 strikeouts and gave up 1 walk as the Peaches took the 1-0 win.

In 34 starts this season, Holmes has recorded 14 wins and absorbed 15 losses. He has pitched 298 innings, allowed 299 hits, struck out 153 and has a 3.17 ERA.
