Fama Superb Against Tampa Bay
The St. Louis Cardinals shut out the Tampa Bay Rays, 7-0, behind the strong pitching of Chris Fama. Fama surrendered only 2 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 7.

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

The Rays skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Cardinals press conference, Fama confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

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

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," St. Louis manager Leyland Thomas added.

During this season, Fama has delivered 0 saves. In no relief appearances, he has 109 strikeouts in 108.2 innings with a 3.64 ERA and 7 wins and 7 losses.
