Giants Hubbell Stops Pirates
New York Giants pitcher Carl Hubbell blanked the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-0 at Forbes Field today, tossing a 3-hitter while issuing 2 walks and collecting 2 strikeouts.

After his sharp shutout performance, he shared credit with the rest of the club.

"I was just locked in out there and some of that is due to having a catcher who has such a great feel for hitters," Hubbell said. "I couldn't do what I did without all the guys out there today."

To date this year, Hubbell shows a 17-8 record, 27 starts, 213.1 innings, 120 strikeouts and a 3.33 ERA.
