Fernandez Gets Shutout
Monday, May 26th, 1997
Osvaldo Fernandez of the Columbus Clippers spun his magic on the Savannah Swamp Foxes today. He blanked them 11-0 on 5 hits, registering 7 strikeouts and 1 walk.
"The bottom line was I just kept the ball down," Fernandez said. "My breaking stuff was down. Everything was down."
Talking to reporters in the postgame interview, Columbus skipper said the team "got solid pitching, good defense and took great team at-bats in a lot of different situations."
"Osvaldo pitched really well but this was a solid performance by everyone," he said.
Thus far this season Fernandez has posted a 5-3 record, started 11 games, struck out 28 batters in 68.1 innings and compiled a 4.48 ERA.
