Lookouts shutout by Barons
After scoring 16 runs over the past two games, the Lookouts were unable to push a run across the plate tonight, as they were shutout 1-0 by the Birmingham Barons. Both pitching staffs were stellar, however, one long ball did the damage.
Barons' starter Lance Broadway pitched seven strong innings, allowing five hits, while striking out four. Broadway benefited from a fifth inning home run off the bat of Thomas Collaro. Broadway's record is now an even 6-6.
Lookouts' starter Tyler Pelland made yet another outstanding outing. He went six innings and allowed the one home run, six hits total, while striking out two. Lookouts' relievers David Shafer and Jim Abbott pitched the final three frames, and did not allow a single hit.
The Lookouts will try to get their bats going again tomorrow as they face the Barons at 7:15. The first 1,000 kids, 12 and under, will receive a Lookouts bat, courtesy of US-101 and Dr. Pepper.
