Turner Shuts Out Pirates Friday, June 14th, 2019 The Toronto Blue Jays shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates 8-0 today behind the strong pitching of Ralph Turner. Turner surrendered only 5 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 9. Following the last out, Turner appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Pittsburgh manager Juan Ortega, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Turner's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart. The Pirates skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Blue Jays press conference, Turner confirmed that it was regarding the celebration. "He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Turner said. "And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Toronto manager Bobby Saunders added. So far this year Turner has 6 wins and 1 loss and a 3.12 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
