 | Wednesday, June 27th, 2035: Futrell Pitches Lightning to Shutout Win
"Good pitching beats good hitting" is an old baseball adage.
Well, good pitching also beats bad batting.
In his postgame interview the Utah manager said, "Dorsey Futrell made us look real bad today. He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking."
Futrell had 10 strikeouts, 2 walks and allowed only 4 hits as the Las Vegas Lightning whitewashed the Utah Raptors 7-0.
In 16 starts this season Futrell has compiled a 8-6 record and a 2.86 ERA.
