Diablos Brown Earns 150th Win
Monday, August 12th , 2024
What would you do after you had just won your 150th game? Run around Inferno Field doing cartwheels, jumping for joy and waving to the crowd? Well, maybe you and I would do that, but not Mark Brown -- that's not his way.
After he notched number 150, the 37-year-old El Paso hurler spoke to the press like he always has -- in a soft, quiet voice. He wasn't doing any cartwheels or even anything resembling a jump for joy. "Obviously it feels very good," Brown commented. "To win this many games, you've got to have a lot of help."
Brown got his milestone victory by beating the Los Angeles Knights 2-1. He held them to 3 hits in 7 innings and rung up 4 strikeouts with 1 walk.
After sharing his thoughts with the press, he went to the clubhouse. There he was greeted by the guys who had helped him get #150. His teammates drenched him and then gave him a rousing round of applause. That got to him -- for the first time today, Brown's face broke into a big smile.
A look at his career stats shows Brown has a record of 150 wins and 65 losses and a 2.95 ERA.
