Bethancourt Bewilders Bucks in 5-0 Shutout
It wasn't easy but the Aberdeen Pheasants made it look that way.

Starter Jesus Bethancourt shut out the Watertown Bucks despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Aberdeen Pheasants cruised to victory, 5-0. Bethancourt allowed only 4 hits and rang up 9 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

In season stats Bethancourt shows a 9-4 record in 15 games, 115.2 innings, 111 strikeouts and a 3.73 ERA.
