| Moore Sparkles in Shutout Sunday, June 11th, 2034 The Wilmington Atlantics had no answer today for Philadelphia Hornets pitcher Erik Moore. They failed to score a single run against him, losing 5-0. Wilmington managed only 5 hits off Moore, who had 6 strikeouts.
The extraordinarily popular Moore 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.
"Hornets 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."
This year Moore has a 7-4 record with a 2.22 ERA.
