Duffy's Best Outing Yet


Burlington, IA - DANNY DUFFY recorded the most impressive performance of his professional career Monday night with a seven-inning whitewash of the Peoria Chiefs.


Duffy's seven inning tenure on the mound was his high for the season, and for his career. He gave up no runs, earned or unearned, and allowed only four hits, a double and three singles.
His seven scoreless innings shaved his earned run average to 3.67. In his last 22 innings he has allowed just three earned runs. He struck out eight, his high for the season, while walking nobody. His strikeout-to-walk ratio is now 44-8, best on the Burlington pitching staff.


The Bees won the contest 4-1 after a reliever gave up a run. Duffy picked up his third win of the season against three losses, two of them coming in his first two decisions. More tomorrow.
