Tuesday 7/26/1978: Roger Nelson pitches 1-hit shutout against New York (A)
NEW YORK (A) - Detroit's right-hander Roger Nelson is a great pitcher. And he once again showed his stuff, blanking New York (A) on just one hit. It's his 5th shutout this season, and the 27th time he has done it in his career. The bid for a no-hitter was broken up when Ruppert Jones doubled with one out in the 6th inning. 'Today I just felt fine. I had a good feeling while warming up.' Nelson (16-5) struck out 4 and issued 1 BB, throwing 64 of 103 pitches for strikes. Detroit's first baseman Davey Johnson got 2 hits in 4 AB, homering once, scoring two runs with 4 RBI. That was enough to support the brilliant performance of Nelson. Detroit scored 7 runs on 13 hits.
