Wednesday 7/27/1979: Roger Nelson quiets Boston bats with shutout
DETROIT - Detroit's right-hander Roger Nelson is clearly one of the best pitchers in the game. Boston found out the hard way, getting just 2 hits. Nelson 5th shutout this season was a masterpiece, as he was almost untouchable. He has now hurled 36th shutouts in his career. 'I hit the corners with all of my pitches. That helped a lot!' Nelson (14-6) struck out 5 and walked 3, throwing 72 of 122 pitches for strikes. Detroit's centerfielder Bill North finished 2 for 3, doubling once. That was enough to support the brilliant performance of Nelson. Detroit improved its record to 76-26, scoring 4 runs on 7 hits.
