Association of Indian Baseball News Article | |  | Tuesday, May 17th, 1814: Cervero at His Best, Whips White Dots He didn't put a spell on them. It wasn't black magic, it was just old-fashioned good pitching. That's how Pulma Cervero of the Bangalore Torpedoes blanked the Hyderabad White Dots 7-0.
After tossing a complete game 3-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." Cervero walked 2 and struck out 9 in the victory.
The White Dots 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."
Thus far this season Cervero has posted a 4-2 record, started 6 games, struck out 35 batters in 51 innings and compiled a 2.12 ERA. | |
