Pratt Brilliant, Fans 16 Wednesday, October 18th , 2045 Everything was working for Steve Pratt today at Avista Stadium. He had the perfect delivery. The ball was moving. The slider was working. In an unforgettable performance, the 34-year-old Pratt fanned 16 Indians and sparked the Vancouver Canadians to a 3-1 victory over Spokane. He left Indians hitters mumbling and muttering at the plate. And when he needed a strikeout, he got it. "I don't know if there are many times that I've seen him throw better," said Vancouver manager Devlin Peyton. "His location and command were really something." In addition to collecting 16 strikeouts over 7.2 innings, Pratt allowed 5 hits and no walks in a superlative outing. "I thought I'd make it easy on the guys today," Pratt said with a smile. In 21 starts this year Pratt has crafted a 13-2 record and a 2.07 ERA. |
