Albert Retires 27 Cosmos in a Row Monday, June 22nd , 2048 Of the many memorable accomplishments in the career of Sarnia Canadians pitcher Michael Albert, none will likely compare to the outing he had against Dearborn today at Kawartha Lakes Stadium. Albert was perfect, retiring every batter he faced to give his team the 1-0 victory over the Cosmos. "That shows you the kind of competitor he is," Sarnia manager said. "I thought he dominated the whole game. He hit his spots well and was really focused out there." He finished the game with 11 strikeouts, walked no one, gave up no hits and his teammates made no errors. He retired all 27 batters he faced. "I had command of my pitches from the get-go," said Albert. "Usually it takes a few innings for me to get loose and get my mechanics right. It happened quicker today. I was comfortable from the first pitch. As the innings went on, it got easier. I was really smooth, fluid and relaxed. And the team definitely had my back." This season Albert has worked 95.1 innings with 102 strikeouts en route to a 5-6 record and a 3.30 ERA. View Boxscore View Game Log |
