Augustus Twirls 8-0 Shutout
The <Washington Resonance:team#91> shut out the <Colorado Bears:team#2> 8-0 today behind the strong pitching of <Joel Augustus:player#8626>. <Augustus:player#8626> surrendered only 2 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 6.

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

The Bears skipper would not comment on the exchange, but at the Resonance press conference, Augustus confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

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

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Washington manager Larry Gomberg added.
