 | Keystones Blank Cincinnati, Conlin Winner Friday, September 21st , 1917 Ellis Conlin led the Philadelphia Keystones to a shutout victory, 1-0, over the Cincinnati Monarchs at Broad Street Park. "My pitching coach told me before the game just to bear down and focus," Conlin recalled later. "He said no one was going to hit me if I'm throwing a good breaking ball with good location." Conlin yielded 6 hits and had 4 strikeouts and 1 walk in the standout performance. "I thought he put the ball where he wanted to," Cincinnati manager Jack Schmidt said. "And that's just about the whole secret to pitching." In 21 starts this season, Conlin has registered a 6-5 record and a 2.11 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |   |
