Cougars Get Zilch in 9-0 Loss to Cubs, Volnov Wednesday, July 25th , 2046 In a seemingly effortless performance, Nicolai Volnov of the South Bend Cubs shot down the Kane County Cougars 9-0 on a 2-hit shutout. "Nicolai was just locating so well and using his pitches," South Bend manager Akil Baddoo said later. "He wasn't leaving anything over the plate." Volnov recorded 12 strikeouts and 4 walks in a strong outing. "When he needed to make pitches, he elevated his game," Kane County manager Donnie Tucci said in postgame comments to BNN. "We couldn't get a key hit off him." In 24 starts this season Volnov has rung up a 4-12 record and a 5.06 ERA. |
