Ivan Nova tossed his first career shutout in a 2-0 win over the Orioles on Saturday. Nova was dominant, limiting the Orioles to just three hits (all singles) and one walk while striking out five. Only one baserunner even made it to second base. He needed just 104 pitches to finish off the victory. With a 2.88 ERA and 97/34 K/BB ratio over 109 1/3 innings, Nova is quietly enjoying a breakthrough season. He lines up for a start against the Red Sox next Thursday at home.
