Author Topic: Nationals @ Braves, Game 1 (Read 21952 times)

Stras reminds me of Camilo Pasqual in 1958, hard thrower with great stuff and posted an ERA of 3.15 but finished 8-12. On June 5 he pitched 13 innings against KC but lost 2-0 in a complete game for the effort when Woodie Held hit a 2 run homer in the 14th. He even hit a triple, going 1 for 5. All 3,652 fans in attendance got free baseball and the game lasted 3:10 which was shorter than the ESPN game Sunday night.

They better not stretch Scherzer to 140 pitches tonight.

Just gave up a grand salami. 3.74 ERA since coming back from the DL

Not peaking too early...

112 pitches. So maybe he wasn’t lying last start...and he certainly looks better.

Like I said, I think that was only partly the truth.

Well Rusty and Stubby Clapp played a year for the Saratoga Stallions in the short A league in 1952 but Stubby had to sit out a year while the antibiotics worked and Rusty went on to team with Camillo in the Cuban summer league. Later he roomed with NoSpinZone and I'm not sure whatever happened to Rusty.
