Hensley Holds Fighting Imps Scoreless Monday, August 1st , 2061 The Mercer Island Screaming Eagles shut out the Ithaca Fighting Imps, 6-0, behind the strong pitching of Nick Hensley. Hensley surrendered only 7 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 4. Following the last out, Hensley appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Ithaca manager Jeffrey Lewis, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Hensley's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart. The Fighting Imps skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Screaming Eagles press conference, Hensley confirmed that it was regarding the celebration. "He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Hensley said. "And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Mercer Island manager Jonah Moody added. Currently Hensley has a record of 10-3 with 94 strikeouts and 29 walks in 123.2 innings and a 3.35 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
