Encarnación Magic in 3-0 Shutout
Sunday, May 17th , 2015
"Good pitching beats good hitting" is an old baseball adage.
Well, good pitching also beats bad hitting.
Rich Encarnación of the Sioux City Indians proved the point at Norfolk Grounds, holding the Waco Branch Davidians to 3 hits in a complete game shutout victory.
"Encarnación made us look real bad today," Branch Davidians manager said in a postgame interview. "He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking."
Encarnación had 10 strikeouts and gave up no walks as the Indians took the 3-0 win.
Checking out his stats for the season, Encarnación has notched 3 wins and 4 losses in 8 starts. His ERA is 2.56 and he's struck out 66 batters in 59.2 innings.
