Expos Hurler Luna Tosses Masterpiece
Thursday, August 25th , 2061
It wasn't easy but the Niagara Falls Expos made it look that way.
Starter José Luna shut out the Walla Walla Walleye despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Niagara Falls Expos cruised to victory, 5-0. Luna allowed only 2 hits and rang up 7 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."
Luna has made 18 starts this season, posting 5 wins and 7 losses. Opposing clubs are batting .244 against him and he has 72 strikeouts in 107 innings with a 3.79 ERA.
