It turns out that David Price can still perform well against good competition. He may never live up to the outrageous standards set by the lucrative contract the Boston Red Sox handed him yet even his harshest critics have to be impressed by Price’s latest performance.
The lefty fired eight shutout innings against the Cleveland Indians on Thursday to pick up his 14th win of the season. That ties him for sixth in the league in wins while trailing only Rick Porcello on the team. Price allowed only three hits without a walk and struck out seven on an efficient 101 pitches.
