| Stanley Lamb Notches Number 150 | What would you do after you had just won your 150th game? Run around Columbia Field doing cartwheels, jumping for joy and waving to the crowd? Well, maybe you and I would do that, but not Stanley Lamb -- that's not his way.
After he notched number 150, the 25-year-old Pittsburgh hurler spoke to the press like he always has -- in a soft, quiet voice. He wasn't doing any cartwheels or even anything resembling a jump for joy. "Obviously it feels very good," Lamb commented. "To win this many games, you've got to have a lot of help."
Lamb got his milestone victory by beating the New York Barons 10-2. He held them to 7 hits in 9 innings and rung up 7 strikeouts with 3 walks.
After sharing his thoughts with the press, he went to the clubhouse. There he was greeted by the guys who had helped him get #150. His teammates drenched him and then gave him a rousing round of applause. That got to him -- for the first time today, Lamb's face broke into a big smile.
Lifetime Lamb has chalked up 150 wins and 119 losses and compiled a 2.32 ERA. | | |  | |
