Peterson Sends California Bats to Deep Freeze
All went well for Fritz Peterson of the New York Yankees as he pitched his team to a shutout victory, 3-0, over the California Angels, limiting them to 2 hits. In the postgame interview, both managers had glowing things to say about Peterson on the day.
"Fritz's got a good selection of pitches he can throw at a guy," said Yankees manager Ralph Houk. "He changes speed, gives different looks to different hitters. When he's on his game, he's quite a handful."
In the contest, the New York left-hander rang up 1 and surrendered 1 walk.
"He didn't give us any second chances," said Angels manager <Lefty Phillips:coach#4>. "It's a guessing game with him and today we were always guessing wrong."
Checking out his stats for the year, Peterson has racked up 1 win and 1 loss in 5 starts, posted a 3.21 ERA, and struck out 14 batters in 33.2 innings.
