Bulldogs Win, 3-0, as Hicks Mystifies Penn State Monday, May 19th , 2053 There was no spell, no black magic -- just good pitching. Al Hicks of the Butler Bulldogs blanked the Penn State Nittany Lions, 3-0, at Penmen Ballpark, 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," Hicks said. "I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance." Hicks walked 1 and struck out 12 in the victory. "He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes," Nittany Lions manager Jessie Porter said later. This year, Hicks has compiled a 2-4 record with a 8.12 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
