Savastand Pitches Arizona (WIN) to Shutout Victory
Thursday, December 30th , 2049
In an outstanding mound performance, Arizona (WIN) Diamondbacks starter Cody Savastand fired a complete-game shutout against the Baltimore (WIN) Orioles at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick today.
Savastand was the key to the Diamondbacks's 4-0 win. The 24-year-old right-hander was in high spirits on the mount for much of the game, his mood largely undented by the 2 hits and 1 walk he allowed.
"2 hits?" he said with a laugh following the game. "Listen, I'd be happy with a 30-hitter as long as it was a shutout."
In 5 starts this season Savastand has chalked up a 3-0 record and a 2.67 ERA.
