Flores Hurls 3-0 Shutout
Wednesday, July 15th , 2009
The Texas-Tyler Patriots shut out the Birmingham-Southern Panthers 3-0 today behind the strong pitching of António Flores. Flores surrendered only 6 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.
Following the last out, Flores appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Birmingham-Southern manager Dave Underwood, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Flores's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Panthers skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Patriots press conference, Flores confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Flores said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Texas-Tyler manager Willie Lozado added.
