Tuesday 9/20/1997: San Francisco has no chance in a 1-hitter by John Smoltz
ATLANTA - Atlanta's right-hander John Smoltz is a great pitcher. And he once again showed his stuff, blanking San Francisco on just one hit. It's his 11th shutout this season, and the 45th time he has done it in his career. Smoltz (26-4) struck out 7 and walked 1, throwing 67 of 105 pitches for strikes. 'Hey, that's my job! Everytime I take the mound I give the best I can. And my best stuff was too much for them today.' Kelly Gruber provided Atlanta with the offense Smoltz needed as he went 2 for 4, blasting a homerun, scoring two runs and collecting 2 RBI. The final score of the game was 5-0.
