Mission Blanked by Paige
Tuesday, August 14th, 1928
The Mission Bells ran into a buzzsaw at Wrigley Field L.A. today as Los Angeles Angels starter Satchel Paige cut them down to size, 4-0, tossing a 7-hit shutout.
"That's one thing that has never changed in this game -- pitching can control hitting," Angels manager Al Borie told reporters after the game. "Satchel knows exactly what he's doing. He's not going to throw you a good pitch until you make him throw one."
In the complete game whitewash, the Los Angeles hurler doled out no walks and registered 8 strikeouts.
His record this season is 22-2 in 24 starts and Paige has a 1.39 ERA.
