| Breaking News |  | Friday, August 29th, 2008: Rainiers Blanked by Sidewinders Micah Owings bent a little, but he didn't break against the Rainiers. The Tucson pitcher hurled a 3-hit 2-0 shutout in a fine performance, surrendering 1 walk and putting up 8 strikeouts.
"Micah is good at getting out of jams," his manager told reporters after the game. "He's almost more effective when he gets guys on base or gets behind in the count, because he uses your aggressiveness against you."
|  | Wednesday, August 27th, 2008: Buckner on Top of His Game The Tacoma Rainiers met their match today in Tucson hurler Billy Buckner. He kept them guessing the whole game and spun a 2-hit shutout.
"He just worked us over," the Tacoma skipper said. "He probably didn't even take a shower after the game. I don't think he even worked up a sweat. They could probably pitch him again tomorrow."
In the 1-0 victory Buckner whiffed 6 and gave up no walks.
This year Buckner has a 6-7 record with a 4.08 ERA in 20 starts. |  | Thursday, August 21st, 2008: Pinango Strong Arms Rainiers in Shutout In an impressive mound performance, Miguel Pinango of the Las Vegas 51s checked the Tacoma Rainiers on a 2-hitter and held them scoreless.
"He was getting ahead of us and keeping the ball off the plate," according to the Tacoma manager.
"Pinango kept us confused the whole game."
The Las Vegas hurler rang up 4 strikeouts and issued no walks in his 4-0 shutout victory.
This year Pinango has registered 10 wins and 8 losses in 27 starts with a 3.96 ERA while registering 88 strikeouts and 38 walks in 161.1 innings. | | | | Team Information | | Record overall | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Position in Division | 1st, - GB | | Record at home | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record on the road | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record in X-inning games | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record in one-run games | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record versus LHP | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record versus RHP | 0-0, .000 PCT | | Record last 10 games | 0-0, .000 PCT |
