You Can't Make This Stuff Up

One day after socking the Haymakers 18-5, the Blue Legs left their bats at home and suffered a ten-run loss to the Canaries. Behind the masterful moundsmanship (yeah, it's a word) of Pud Galvin, the Canaries triumphed 10-0. Galvin's shutout was the first one hurled this season and only the fourth in the three-season history of this league. (He joins Cy Young, Jack Chesbro, and teammate Tim Keefe in that exclusive club.) With four very strong starts under his belt, Galvin looks to be joining the conversation for Pitching MVP, which thus far has seemed like a two-man race between Cy Young and Old Hoss Radbourn.
