| Breaking News |  | Sunday, August 17th, 2014: Shimizu Mystifies Burlington
Norio Shimizu was sneaky fast, on the mark and hard to hit today. He blanked the Burlington Railroaders 6-0 on 2 hits and had 1 walk and 9 strikeouts.
"You know what he's going to throw. You know what to expect. And you still can't hit it," the Burlington skipper told reporters after the shutout loss to the Caracas Roughnecks.
"He just had a real deceiving fastball today and he was throwing it for strikes."
In 26 starts this season Shimizu has chalked up a 15-7 record and a 3.34 ERA.

 | Wednesday, August 6th, 2014: Hernández Sensational, 5-6
There are moments in a player's career that are etched into their memories forever. António Hernández of the Claxton Blue Knights had one of those moments when he went 5 for 6 at the plate today in the 12-4 win over the Caracas Roughnecks at Ballpark of Claxton.
The 20-year-old catcher told reporters in the postgame interview, "This is a day I won't forget soon, but I'll settle to just get a hit or two every day... enough hits to hang around the league a little bit longer... like 10... 15 more years maybe."
A. Hernández singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, struck out in the 8th and hit a two-run single in the 9th.
This year Hernández is batting .280 with 108 hits and 7 home runs. He has scored 51 times and has batted in 60 runs.
