| Colantuono Tosses Shutout Against Kansas City Sunday, August 11th , 1963 The Toronto Wolves shut out the Kansas City Kings, 3-0, behind the strong pitching of Phil Colantuono. Colantuono surrendered only 7 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 4.
Following the last out, Colantuono appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Kansas City manager Glenn Carney, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Colantuono's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Kings skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Wolves press conference, Colantuono confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Colantuono said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Toronto manager Randy Hohlt added.
This year, Colantuono has a 13-6 record with a 2.54 ERA in 24 starts.
