Peninsula Held Hitless by Holdsworth
Is it better to be lucky or good?
After leading the Rocky Mount Leafs to victory, 5-0, and tossing a no-hitter over the Peninsula Phillies, Fred Holdsworth didn't have the answer.
"I don't know," Holdsworth said. "To do what I did today, I'm pretty sure it takes both."
On his big day at Peninsula Stadium, Holdsworth fanned 15 and had 1 walk. And it seemed that when the Phillies managed to hit the ball hard, it went right at a defender.
"That's how you get a no-hitter," Holdsworth said with a smile. "A lot of skill mixed with a little luck."
To date this year, in 16 starts, Holdsworth has crafted a 9-5 mark with a 1.85 ERA.
