Jones Fires 3-0 Shutout for Memphis
The Memphis Bears shut out the Birmingham Black Magic 3-0 today behind the strong pitching of Archie Jones. Jones surrendered only 2 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.

Following the last out, Jones appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Birmingham manager Gerard Hall, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Jones's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Black Magic skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Bears press conference, Jones confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Jones said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Memphis manager Harry Thompson added.

This year Jones has a 11-20 mark in 31 starts with a 3.25 ERA. He has given up 276 hits in 260.2 innings, struck out 109 and issued 61 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .277 batting average against him.
