Emerson Pitches Birmingham to Shutout Victory
George Emerson of the Birmingham Smokers was masterful, pitching a 6-hit shutout, 6-0, against the Montgomery Moccasins.

By going the distance, he was at the same time able to give his bullpen a rest, a fact appreciated by Birmingham manager Bob Goble.

"It's nice to have someone who can do that from time to time," he said. "He had command of every ball and every pitch. Great location, too."

Emerson had 3 strikeouts and no walks in the outing.


Currently Emerson has a record of 21-3 with 96 strikeouts and 35 walks in 210 innings and a 2.19 ERA.
