Newest Cardinal Schmidt Shuts Out Giants
Willard Schmidt, the newest Cardinal, silenced the Giants in a 3-1 victory in the first game of a two-night doubleheader. The 26-year-old right-hander struck out six, walked none, and used a mix of fastball, curve, and slider to impress in his debut after a week with St. Louis. The Cards later lost the second game 4-2 as Schmidt’s rookie classmates Larry Jackson, Luis Arroyo, and Floyd Wooldridge joined him in a notable starting quartet.
