Johnson(12-6) escaped virtually unscathed against the Athens hitters. He was stingy on the mound, allowing just 4 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings. Brentwood totaled 12 on the night. Jack Chesbro(8-5) was the losing pitcher. When questioned about his counterpart after the game, Chesbro was lavish in his praise, 'It was obvious very early on that we were going to be in for a long night. Johnson brought his 'A' game with him - he had good stuff and was able to spot it perfectly. He probably only made one or two bad pitches the entire game! |
