Jim Lonborg was on top of his game, blanking Cleveland on just 3 hits as the Pittsburgh Pirates bested the Cleveland Indians 1 to 0 at Municipal Stadium.
Lonborg(2-0) dominated Cleveland hitters. He was stingy on the mound, allowing just 3 hits and no walks in 9 innings improving his ERA from 1.50 to 0.60. Pittsburgh had just 6 hits for the night.
Ross Grimsley(0-2) was the losing pitcher. 'All of my pitches were working tonight,' Lonborg said. 'I felt really good out there, and heck, I think I could have gone longer.'
