Rarity in the California League
Last Friday (April 25), a rarity happened in the California League, when San Jose shut out the 66ers, Stockton shut out the Quakes and Visalia shut out Modesto.
So I asked MLB.com when was the last time three shutouts happened on the same day in the hitter-friendly Cal League?
The answer is April 21, 2006. On that day, the Quakes shut out Modesto, San Jose shut out Lake Elsinore and Visalia shut out Stockton.
