Fort Worth Bats Silenced by Simpson
Austin Stars hurler Samuel Simpson was stingy with runs in his latest outing against the Fort Worth Drovers, shutting them out, 2-0, on 8 hits.

"Samuel was very aggressive tonight," Austin manager said. "He threw everything he had with a lot of confidence."

Through 9 innings, Simpson tallied 7 strikeouts and allowed 7 walks.

"He was throwing strikes with all his pitches and mixing it up well," losing manager said. "Simpson has a sneaky fastball, and whatever that off-speed pitch was, it was keeping our timing off."

This season, Simpson has fashioned a 1-0 mark and 0.98 ERA in 18.1 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .239 against him and he has logged 8 strikeouts.
