| Bear Skunks Sioux City, 2-0 Thursday, September 15th , 1887 Peoria Warriors starter Dan Bear really did a number on the Sioux City Grainmen, shutting them out, 2-0, on 7 hits in a complete game victory. He issued 5 walks and had 2 strikeouts.
"We didn't have good at-bats," said Sioux City 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 Bear."
To date this year, in 34 starts, Bear has crafted a 29-5 mark with a 2.24 ERA. | | |
