Flash!!! Lefthander Greg Hibbard squared off against the Cedar Rapids Cyclones on May 12, 1970, and came away with a near perfect game. His 3-0 win was highlighted by only two Cylone batters reaching base, one was a walk to Cyclone catcher Gary Carter in the 2nd inning. The other was when 3B Chico Walker reached on a two base error by Hot Dog secondsacker Jeff Blauser in the 4th. Walker who has been off to a hot start this season whiffed 4 batters in this gem. He improved his record to 7-1 with a fine 2.35 ERA so far. Loosing pitcher Mike Moore (5-3) gave up just 4 hits going the distance for the Cyclones in this pitchers duel. Chito Martinez, Chili Davis, and Jeff Blauser drove in the runs for the Dogs. 5/12/1991, CRC91-FRA91, Arlington Stadium 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E LOB DP 1991 Cyclones 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 1 1991 Hot Dogs 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 x 3 4 1 1 0 Cyclones AB R H BI AVG Hot Dogs AB R H BI AVG Puckett cf 4 0 0 0 .238 Johnson,H ss 4 1 1 0 .244 Walker,C 3b 4 0 0 0 .136 Schaefer ss 0 0 0 0 .500 Duncan 2b 3 0 0 0 .192 Sierra cf 3 0 0 0 .355 Olerud 1b 3 0 0 0 .163 Martinez,Ch rf 3 0 0 1 .167 Stubbs lf 3 0 0 0 .259 Fielder 1b 2 0 0 0 .268 Carter,G c 2 0 0 0 .221 Fisk c 3 0 1 0 .290 Carreon rf 3 0 0 0 .000 Gruber 3b 3 1 1 0 .248 Vizquel ss 3 0 0 0 .151 Davis,C lf 3 0 1 1 .229 Moore p 2 0 0 0 .091 Hayes,V pr 0 1 0 0 .000 Wilson,M ph 1 0 0 0 .083 Blauser 2b 2 0 0 1 .153 28 0 0 0 Hibbard p 3 0 0 0 .111 26 3 4 3 Cyclones INN H R ER BB K PCH STR ERA Moore L 5-3 8.0 4 3 2 1 3 85 55 2.48 8.0 4 3 2 1 3 85 55 Hot Dogs INN H R ER BB K PCH STR ERA Hibbard W 7-1 9.0 0 0 0 1 4 92 65 2.35 9.0 0 0 0 1 4 92 65 CRC: Wilson,M batted for Moore in the 9th FRA: Hayes,V ran for Davis,C in the 8th Schaefer inserted at ss in the 9th Sierra moved to lf in the 9th Hayes,V moved to cf in the 9th E-Carreon, Blauser. 2B-Johnson,H, Gruber, Davis,C.
