Rhoden Takes Charge, Blanks Houston, 7-0
Sunday, September 19th, 1982
In an outstanding mound performance, Los Angeles Dodgers starter Rick Rhoden fired a complete-game shutout against the Houston Astros at Dodger Stadium 1962 today.
Rhoden was the key to the Dodgers's 7-0 win. The 29-year-old right-hander was in high spirits on the mount for much of the game, his mood largely undented by the 4 hits and no walks he allowed.
"4 hits?" he said with a laugh following the game. "Listen, I'd be happy with a 30-hitter as long as it was a shutout."
This year Rhoden has made 32 starts, thrown 255.2 innings, fanned 198 batters and walked 38. His won-lost record is 15-11 with a 3.03 ERA.
