Calgary No Match for Cepeda
Tuesday, July 12th, 2033
The Scranton Supernovas shut out the Calgary Lynx 5-0 today behind the strong pitching of Apollo Cepeda. Cepeda surrendered only 6 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.

Following the last out, Cepeda appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Calgary manager Ricardo Betancourt, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Cepeda's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Lynx skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Supernovas press conference, Cepeda confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Cepeda said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Scranton manager Wes Murray added.

So far this year Cepeda has made 9 starts, tossed 65.1 innings, struck out 40 batters and walked 29. His record is 3-5 with a 2.89 ERA and he has limited opposing teams to a .245 batting average.
