Abdul-Samad Electric in 12-0 Win
Tuesday, July 30th , 2058
The Shenyang Water Pigs manager was philosophical in the clubhouse following a shutout loss to the Tianjin Brigands. The Water Pigs were overpowered by Tianjin starter Abdel Abdul-Samad, who hurled his club to victory, 12-0.
"It was just one of those games -- shake it off and do better next time," Micah Halfacre said.
Over 9 innings, Abdul-Samad blanked Shenyang on 2 hits with no walks and 9 strikeouts.
"I kept them off balance. I could tell a lot of them were late on fastballs because they were fouling them off. Once you see that, it sets them up for other pitches," Abdul-Samad said.
"I set them up, where if they chased one breaking ball, they were going to chase another one."
To date Abdul-Samad is 7-1 in 10 starts with a 1.54 ERA and has 73 strikeouts in 76 innings.
