Medich Too Tough, Blanks Phoenix
Wednesday, August 25th, 1982
There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching.
Doc Medich of the Eugene Emeralds blanked the Phoenix Giants, 8-0, at Civic Stadium today, and he did it the old-fashioned way. After finishing the 4-hit, complete-game shutout, he was all smiles.
"I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game," Medich said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance."
Medich walked 0 and struck out 4 in the victory.
"He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Giants manager said later.
So far this year Medich has made 8 starts, tossed 59.1 innings, struck out 32 batters and walked 16. His record is 2-4 with a 4.40 ERA and he has limited opposing teams to a .215 batting average.
