 | Thursday, September 25th, 2014: Angels of Anaheim Shut Out Mariners, Hernandez Winner
In an impressive outing, Gabriel Hernandez whitewashed the Seattle Mariners 2-0.
"I'm getting a lot more downward movement instead of side to side. That side-to-side stuff can get hit a long way," said Hernandez, who is throwing with more of an overhand motion.
"It's not rocket science. It was just a little adjustment, but that's all it took."
The Los Angeles (A) hurler held Seattle scoreless, allowed 6 hits, chalked up 6 strikeouts and yielded no walks.
In 2014 Hernandez has posted a record of 15 wins and 10 losses with a 4.08 ERA. He has appeared in 31 games and struck out 95 in 187.2 innings.
