| Zero Hour: Howard Blanks Acorns | Frank Howard put a hex on the Oakland Acorns in a sparkling 6-0 shutout performance, mesmerizing them on a 4-hit gem.
"I felt good physically," he said after the game. "Everything's comfortable. You should pitch well when that's the case."
The Acorns were anything but comfortable against the 26-year-old Los Angeles Saints hurler, who fanned 0 and gave up 2 walks.
"Howard used his changeup very well, very effectively," said opposing manager Brad Harrison. "He threw it in hitter's counts."
In 26 starts this year, Howard has crafted a 12-11 record and a 2.80 ERA. | |
