Paxton Whitewashes Diamondbacks
The Arizona Diamondbacks had no answer today for Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher James Paxton. They failed to score a single run against him, losing 9-0. Arizona managed only 5 hits off Paxton, who had 7 strikeouts.

The extraordinarily popular Paxton got a standing ovation from the hometown crowd as he left the field, the applause continuing until he returned from the dugout to tip his cap to the crowd.

"Pirates fans are the best fans, in my opinion," he said. "It's a great feeling to throw a shutout under any circumstances but to do it with the crowd behind you like that is just incredible."

Paxton has pitched 205.1 innings and molded a 1.71 ERA with no saves. He has surrendered 145 hits while registering 173 strikeouts on his way to a 16-3 record for the Pirates this year.
