| Andrade Holds Marines Scoreless
Friday, April 9th, 2010: The Chiba Marines met their match today in Yomiuri hurler Adrián Andrade. He kept them guessing the whole game and spun a 4-hit shutout.
"He just worked us over," the Chiba 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 4-0 victory Andrade whiffed 7 and gave up no walks.
