Christian Shuts Out Wolfeboro, 4-0: The Sunderland Black Cats shut out the Wolfeboro Wolves 4-0 today behind the strong pitching of Pat Christian. Christian surrendered only 5 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 5.
Following the last out, Christian appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Wolfeboro manager Chris Miller, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Christian's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Wolves skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Black Cats press conference, Christian confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Christian said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Sunderland manager José Mora added.
This year Christian has a 6-2 record with a 4.19 ERA in 12 starts.
