Ex-Wild Thing Sergey still tossing scoreless innings

Matt Sergey
Has not given up a run while pitching for Laredo.

Former Wild Things pitcher Matt Sergey extended his run of scoreless innings since being dealt from Washington to Laredo when he fired six shutout innings Thursday night in the Lemurs' 4-1 victory over Wichita in the American Association semifinals.

Sergey allowed only two hits, did not walk a batter and struck out seven. He left after throwing 94 pitches and holding a 2-0 lead.

The win gives Laredo a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-5 series.

Since being traded by the Wild Things, Sergey has pitched 26 consecutive scoreless innings, allowing only 10 hits and four walks with 29 strikeouts.

With numbers like that, the two players the Wild Things are supposed to be getting in exchange for Sergey better be good. Very good.
