 | Witt Pitches Toronto to Shutout Victory Monday, September 4th , 1916 In an impressive outing, Stu Witt blanked the Pittsburgh Mechanics 3-0. "I'm getting a lot more downward movement instead of side to side. That side-to-side stuff can get hit a long way," said Witt, who is throwing with more of an overhand motion. "It's not rocket science. It was just a little adjustment, but that's all it took." The Toronto hurler held Pittsburgh scoreless, allowed 3 hits, chalked up 6 strikeouts and yielded 3 walks. Witt has fashioned a 13-17 mark for the season, 2.32 ERA and thrown 279.2 innings in 36 starts. Opposing clubs are batting .245 against him. View Boxscore |   |
