Cats Scratch The Pelicans
June 19, 2010
A good old fashion pitching duel ended in a 4-0 win for the Fort Worth Cats (14-19) over the Pensacola Pelicans (14-19) Friday night.
It was a scoreless pitcher’s duel until the fifth inning when the Cats got on the board first. Stantrel Smith would bloop in a double to right center scoring Kelley Gulledge and Rob Ruencenco to make it a 2-0 lead for Fort Worth.
Fort Worth added to the lead in the eighth when Jeremy Sauceda lined a double into deep right center to bring in Nick McCoola and Brian Fryer to open the lead for the Cats at 4-0.
The Pelicans offense struggled all night long as they only mustered four hits off Cats pitching. Pensacola also hit into three double plays in the game which deflated possible rallies for the squad.
Tim Bittner (2-5) gets the win as he pitches five shutout innings giving up only one hit on the night.
David Nathanson (1-3) takes the loss despite pitching a complete game going eight innings giving up four runs-three earned while striking out eight batters.
