Reds Suffer 9-0 Drubbing from Dodgers
Monday, September 27th, 1982
The Los Angeles Dodgers shut out the Cincinnati Reds 9-0 today behind the strong pitching of Dave Righetti. Righetti surrendered only 5 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 9.
Following the last out, Righetti appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Cincinnati manager Jonathan Powles, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken left-hander as the clubs left the field. Righetti's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Reds skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Dodgers press conference, Righetti confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Righetti said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Los Angeles manager Jason Gudim added.
His record for the year is 19-5 in 28 starts and Righetti has a 2.02 ERA.
