<a href=p2504.html>Rick Foster</a> blanks Chicago (A) with a 1-hitter
 
CHICAGO (A) - Great days are rare. But not for Texas' 
right-hander <a href=p2504.html>Rick Foster</a>. Chicago 
(A) found out the hard way that he is among the leagues 
top pitchers, getting just one hit. It's his 2nd shutout 
this season, and the 6th time he has done it in his 
career. With no outs in the 9th inning <a href=p453.html>Jack 
Bond</a> singled to break up the no-hitter. 'That was 
one of the best games of my career. I had my stuff 
working very well today.' Foster (6-6) fanned 4 and 
walked none, throwing 103 pitches. <a href=p203.html>Salvador 
Cuadrado</a> provided Texas with the offense Foster 
needed as he went 4 for 5, hitting two dingers, with 
three runs scored and collecting 3 RBI. Texas improved 
its record to 38-33, scoring 11 runs on 15 hits.
