Greene Tosses 4-0 Shutout Sunday, January 17th , 2044 The San Francisco (WIN) Giants shut out the Asheville Tourists 4-0 today behind the strong pitching of Gael Greene. Greene surrendered only 7 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 11. Following the last out, Greene appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Asheville manager Chito Llaneta, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Greene's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart. The Tourists skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Giants press conference, Greene confirmed that it was regarding the celebration. "He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Greene said. "And I told him he was being a lousy loser," San Francisco (WIN) manager Daric Barton added. This season Greene has a 2-6 mark in 9 starts with a 5.06 ERA. He has given up 61 hits in 53.1 innings, struck out 54 and issued 14 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .284 batting average against him. |
