Pérez Fashions Shutout Against Halberds Sunday, August 8th, 2038 Santiago Pérez of the Vermont Lake Monsters was on top of his game today. The 27-year-old tantalized the Alloway Halberds with crisp curves and changeups, mixed in with just enough fastballs to keep the batters honest and came away with a 4-0 shutout. "He had the changeup working," Alloway manager Manuel Hernández said in postgame comments. "You knew it was coming and you still grounded out -- and then he threw it even slower." The Vermont hurler had 2 strikeouts, gave up 1 walk and surrendered 5 hits in his complete-game effort. Pérez told reporters after the game that "keeping the ball down is the key to being successful in this league." "If you don't do that, they'll make you pay," he said. To this point in the season Pérez has 4 wins and no losses and a 2.14 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
