In his first start of the season, the Brewers give Harry Lyerly plenty of early run support, scoring 6 times in the top of the 1st (Lyerly himself contributed a 2-out RBI single), but the young hurler would not need it.
Lyerly pitched a complete game, 4-hit shutout to get his first victory of the new season. Although he only struck out 6 batters (on the low side for him) he also only issued 2 walks in the masterpiece.
The story from the clubhouse is that Lyerly has heard about the many naysayers who believe that his early success is unsustainable and is bound and determined to prove that his rookie campaign was no fluke.
He is only one game in to the new season, but so far so good.
