Behind Madden, St. Louis Blanks Boston, 5-0 | The Boston Minutemen ran into a buzzsaw at Minuteman Stadium, as St. Louis Pioneers starter Steve Madden cut them down to size, 5-0, tossing a 3-hit shutout.
"That's one thing that has never changed in this game -- pitching can control hitting," Pioneers manager Lou Ormsby told reporters after the game. "Steve knows exactly what he's doing. He's not going to throw you a good pitch until you make him throw one."
In the complete game win, the St. Louis hurler doled out 5 walks and registered 1 strikeout.
In 6 starts this season, Madden has picked up 5 wins while suffering no losses. He has pitched 49.1 innings, allowed 35 hits, struck out 21 and posted a 1.82 ERA. | |
