| Breaking News |  | Monday, July 30th, 2029: Nace Silences Swingers, Shuts out Corpus Christi
The Hanover manager told reporters after the game, "When he started out, his command was not that good, but he's a tough guy. The more pitches he throws, the better his command is."
He was talking about John Nace, who had just hurled a fine 2-hit shutout over the Corpus Christi Fire Ants. He had 5 strikeouts and 2 bases on balls in the Hanover Hares victory.
"An outstanding job," the Corpus Christi manager said. "We couldn't get anything going. Every time we got a hit, he got out of the jam. He pitched a terrific game."
So far in 2029, Nace has garnered 1 win and 2 losses over 6 games. He has recorded an ERA of 3.43 and struck out 16 batters, while pitching 42 innings.

The curve I had today was the best I've had all season." With stuff like that, it was easy for Leo Cawsey of the Fire Ants to handcuff the Fire Ants and come away with a complete game 3-hit shutout.
