Zero Hour: Matsuda Blanks Owls | It was not a good day at the plate for the Kyoto Owls. They came up empty when it mattered against Rakisuta Rams left-hander Masakado Matsuda, who scattered 2 hits across 9 innings and held the Owls scoreless.
"We had 2 hits so I know he wasn't completely untouchable, but he was close," Kyoto manager Takejiro Yonemura said later.
Matsuda chalked up 5 strikeouts and 2 walks in the 3-0 Rams win.
This year, Matsuda has posted a 11-6 mark in 21 starts and has a 3.42 ERA. | |
