de Jesus Throws 4-0 Shutout | It wasn't easy but the Kansas City Athletics made it look that way.
Starter Jose de Jesus shut out the New York Black Yankees despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Kansas City Athletics cruised to victory, 4-0. de Jesus allowed only 5 hits and rang up 2 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.
"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."
de Jesus has made 5 starts, tossed 68.1 innings, struck out 38 batters and walked 48. His record is 4-3 with a 5.53 ERA and he has limited other teams to a .263 batting average. | | | | |
