Van Arsdale-Undercarriage Hurls 5-0 Masterpiece
Friday, July 8th , 2050
The Aberdeen Ironbirds shut out the Los Angeles (NYP) Angels 5-0 today behind the strong pitching of Rick Bob Van Arsdale-Undercarriage. Van Arsdale-Undercarriage surrendered only 4 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.
Following the last out, Van Arsdale-Undercarriage appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Los Angeles (NYP) manager Julian Bush, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Van Arsdale-Undercarriage's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Angels skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Ironbirds press conference, Van Arsdale-Undercarriage confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Van Arsdale-Undercarriage said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Aberdeen manager Phil Hall added.
This season Van Arsdale-Undercarriage has crafted a 5-9 mark with a 6.11 ERA in 88.1 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .312 against him and he has 52 strikeouts.
