Campbell Holds Flying Tigers Scoreless: The Tampa Tarpons shut out the Lakeland Flying Tigers 7-0 today behind the strong pitching of Reginald Campbell. Campbell surrendered only 3 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.
Following the last out, Campbell appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Lakeland manager Luis Sojo, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Campbell's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Flying Tigers skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Tarpons press conference, Campbell confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Campbell said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Tampa manager A.J. Burnett added.
