Yesterday was the last day game (except for Sundays) for the Shorebirds, so I went. Nice to have a job with flexibility–something I make sure not to take for granted!
It was truly a great game! The guy who started on the mound for the Shorebirds, Cole McCurry, was 0-4 coming into the game and had an ERA somewhere around 5.00 or 6.00. But he proceeded to strike out 10 batters, walk none, and throw a two-hit shutout over seven innings! They brought in a closer to wrap up the last two innings as Delmarva trounced Greensboro 8-0. The Shorebirds hit three early homers to take a nice lead, and Greensboro never threatened.
Here’s a shot of McCurry delivering his tenth strikeout:
