Paxton Breezes to Shutout Victory
James Paxton led the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 2-0 shutout victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers at Ebbets Field today.

"My pitching coach told me before the game just to bear down and focus," Paxton recalled later. "He said no one was going to hit me if I'm throwing a good breaking ball with good location."

Paxton yielded 4 hits and had 5 strikeouts and 2 walks in the standout performance.

"I thought he put the ball where he wanted to," Brooklyn manager Jason Spiegel said. "And that's just about the whole secret to pitching."

Running the numbers on Paxton for the year, he has made no relief appearances, recorded no saves and compiled a 11-3 won-lost mark with a 1.86 ERA. In pitching 150 innings, he has totaled 124 strikeouts and 56 walks.
