| Monday, June 2nd, 2025: Alexander City Bats Silenced by Conner
He didn't put a spell on them. It wasn't black magic, it was just old-fashioned good pitching. That's how Ralph Conner of the Epping Conquistadors blanked the Alexander City Chiefs 7-0.
After tossing a complete game 3-hit shutout, he was all smiles, saying, "I threw a lot of my pitches for strikes in this game. I mixed it up and tried keeping these guys off balance."
His own skipper said, "He's at his best when he gets ahead of the hitters." Conner walked 1 and struck out 6 in the victory.
The Chiefs manager commented on their lack of success against him, saying, "He was throwing his breaking ball for strikes and we never capitalized on any of his mistakes."
So far this season Conner has a record of 2-7 with 25 strikeouts and 20 walks in 47.2 innings and a 5.29 ERA.
