Rezunenko Toys with Budapest in 7-0 Win
Sunday, May 22nd , 1955
Daniil Rezunenko of the Sofia Frogs was on top of his game.

The 24-year-old tantalized the Budapest Brewers with crisp curves and changeups, mixed in with just enough fastballs to keep the batters honest, shutting them out, 7-0.

"He had the changeup working," Budapest manager said in postgame comments. "You knew it was coming and you still grounded out -- and then he threw it even slower."

The Sofia hurler had 3 strikeouts, gave up 2 walks and surrendered 6 hits in his complete-game effort.

Rezunenko told reporters after the game that "keeping the ball down is the key to being successful in this league."

"If you don't do that, they'll make you pay," he said.

To date this season, Rezunenko has a record of 5 wins and no losses and a 2.45 ERA. He has appeared in 6 games and struck out 21 in 55 innings.
