| Perry Tosses Shutout Against Sycamores Monday, September 19th , 1887 New Orleans Creoles starter Lou Perry really did a number on the Savannah Sycamores, shutting them out, 4-0, on 5 hits in a complete game victory. He issued 1 walk and had 6 strikeouts.
"We didn't have good at-bats," said Savannah manager . "I don't make excuses, but when we were playing the game, our energy didn't show. That comes from either extremely good pitching or extremely lousy hitting and seeing as our team has a bunch of good hitters, I have to tip my cap to Perry."
This season in 31 starts, Lou Perry has a record of 20-9 with 198 strikeouts in 279 innings and a 2.52 ERA. | | |
