 | Thursday, May 16th, 2019: San Francisco Shut Down and Out by Phelps He didn't put a spell on them. It wasn't black magic, it was just old-fashioned good pitching. That's how George Phelps of the Chicago (N) Cubs blanked the San Francisco Giants 10-0. After tossing a complete game 4-hit shutout, he was all smiles, saying, "I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game. I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance." His own skipper said, "He's at his best when he gets ahead of the hitters." Phelps walked 2 and struck out 1 in the victory. The Giants manager commented on their lack of success against him, saying, "He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes." This year in 7 starts, Phelps has recorded 3 wins and absorbed 4 losses. He has pitched 52.2 innings, allowed 47 hits, struck out 32 and has a 2.22 ERA. |
