Gooden Tosses Shutout Against Pilots
Tuesday, June 24th, 1997
Dwight Gooden of the Baltimore Orioles spun his magic on the Seattle Pilots today. He blanked them 9-0 on 10 hits, registering 13 strikeouts and no walks.
"The bottom line was I just kept the ball down," Gooden said. "My breaking stuff was down. Everything was down."
Talking to reporters in the postgame interview, Baltimore skipper Daniel Ward said the team "got solid pitching, good defense and took great team at-bats in a lot of different situations."
"Dwight pitched really well but this was a solid performance by everyone," he said.
Up to now Gooden has recorded a record of 6-4. In 16 starts he has fanned 120 batters in 118.1 innings with a 2.28 ERA.
