Naples Southpaw Tosses 3-0 Shutout Saturday, April 21st, 2040 Lazarus Giraud of the Naples Nobles was on top of his game today. The 25-year-old tantalized the Bilbao Perros Calientes with crisp curves and changeups, mixed in with just enough fastballs to keep the batters honest and came away with a 3-0 shutout. "He had the changeup working," Bilbao manager said in postgame comments. "You knew it was coming and you still grounded out -- and then he threw it even slower." The Naples hurler had 5 strikeouts, gave up no walks and surrendered 4 hits in his complete-game effort. Giraud told reporters after the game that "keeping the ball down is the key to being successful in this league." "If you don't do that, they'll make you pay," he said. View Boxscore View Game Log |
