Wilcox Hot, Hooks Cold
Friday, June 21st , 2047
The Galveston Gumdrops shut out the Oklahoma City Hooks, 2-0, behind the strong pitching of Jonathan Wilcox. Wilcox surrendered only 5 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 7.

Following the last out, Wilcox appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Oklahoma City manager Chris Ouverson, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Wilcox's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Hooks skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Gumdrops press conference, Wilcox confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Wilcox said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Galveston manager Dan Avila added.

On the year, Wilcox has worked 41.1 innings with 23 strikeouts en route to a 3-1 record and 2.18 ERA.
