Tuesday, July 23rd , 2058
St. Petersburg Crocodiles hurler Nick Vernon was stingy with runs in his latest outing against the St. Cloud Silver Hawks, shutting them out 9-0 on 5 hits.
"Nick was very aggressive tonight," St. Petersburg manager said. "He threw everything he had with a lot of confidence."
Through 9 innings, Vernon tallied 13 strikeouts and allowed no walks.
"He was throwing strikes with all his pitches and mixing it up well," losing manager said. "Vernon has a sneaky fastball, and whatever that off-speed pitch was, it was keeping our timing off."
To date this season Vernon sports a 2-0 mark with a 4.67 ERA in 6 starting assignments. He has held the opposition to a .293 batting average and has 33 strikeouts in 34.2 innings.
