Negrete Shuts Out Hazelton Monday, September 9th, 1991 The Harrisburg Pirates shut out the Hazelton Mafioso 3-0 today behind the strong pitching of Carlos Negrete. Negrete surrendered only 6 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 2. Following the last out, Negrete appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Hazelton manager Wally Mahoney, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Negrete's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart. The Mafioso skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Pirates press conference, Negrete confirmed that it was regarding the celebration. "He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Negrete said. "And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Harrisburg manager Seinosuke Kojima added. Negrete has a 12-10 season record so far. In 26 starts, he has fanned 48 batters in 170.2 innings with a 5.85 ERA. |
