James Shields Pitching Another Big Game

by Rob Neyer

Through six innings against Orange County, St. Petersburg’s James Shields has 10 strikeouts, hasn’t allowed a run, and is bidding for his third straight complete game.

↵The last pitcher I can find with three straight complete games is CC Sabathia, with the Brewers in 2008. Am I missing anyone?

↵(And yes, I checked Roy Halladay.)

↵Update: Never mind.
