Fresno Shut Out by Fauntleroy
Wednesday, September 3rd , 2098
The Albuquerque Isotopes shut out the Fresno Grizzlies 2-0 today behind the strong pitching of Derek Fauntleroy. Fauntleroy surrendered only 6 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 5.
Following the last out, Fauntleroy appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Fresno manager Brad Schaenzer, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Fauntleroy's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Grizzlies skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Isotopes press conference, Fauntleroy confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Fauntleroy said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Albuquerque manager Caleb Eldridge added.
On the season Fauntleroy has a 7-5 record with a 4.22 ERA.
