Bill Stearns Shuts Out Boston in 3-0 Victory
Philadelphia Thunder pitcher Bill Stearns delivered a commanding performance at Thunder Ballpark, leading his team to a 3-0 shutout win over the Boston Bears. Stearns allowed just 2 hits across nine innings, striking out 3 batters and walking only 1.
"I felt strong out there and just focused on hitting my spots," Stearns said after the game.
With this latest victory, the 28-year-old right-hander improved his season record to 15-6 and lowered his ERA to an impressive 2.01. Stearns has been a key part of Philadelphia’s success this year, continuing to show why he’s one of the top pitchers in the league.
