Velásquez Sends MSL Pittsburgh Bats to Deep Freeze
It wasn't easy but the MSL Memphis Mockingbirds made it look that way.

Starter Juan Velásquez shut out the MSL Pittsburgh Kingfishers despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the MSL Memphis Mockingbirds cruised to victory, 7-0. Velásquez allowed only 2 hits and rang up 11 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

To this point in the season Velásquez has 8 wins and 3 losses and a 3.94 ERA.
