Martínez Spins 4-0 Shutout Against Vancouver
Sunday, June 24th , 2063
The Yellow Springs Nine shut out the Vancouver Mounties, 4-0, behind the strong pitching of Javier Martínez. Martínez surrendered only 2 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 2.
Following the last out, Martínez appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Vancouver manager Hung-k'uei Cui, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Martínez's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Mounties skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Nine press conference, Martínez confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Martínez said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Yellow Springs manager Bill Inkster added.
To this point in the season Martínez has 6 wins and 3 losses and a 2.41 ERA.
