McKnight Holds Mystique Scoreless
Thursday, June 18th , 2065
The Music City Mystique had no answer today for Louisville Lightning pitcher Jimmy McKnight. They failed to score a single run against him, losing 5-0. Music City managed only 4 hits off McKnight, who had 11 strikeouts.
The extraordinarily popular McKnight got a standing ovation from the hometown crowd as he left the field, the applause continuing until he returned from the dugout to tip his cap to the crowd.
"Lightning fans are the best fans, in my opinion," he said. "It's a great feeling to throw a shutout under any circumstances but to do it with the crowd behind you like that is just incredible."
In 10 starts this year McKnight has fashioned a 3-1 record and a 2.97 ERA.
