Sele shuts down ChiSox
Cameron suffers minor hand injury
April 29, 1999

CHICAGO — Aaron Sele shutout the White Sox tonight, winning his third straight decision, improving to 3-1 on the young season.

Sele held Chicago to just three hits and three walks, striking out four White Sox batters. He threw 114 pitches, 74 for strikes, in the complete game shutout win for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Devil Rays catcher Charles Johnson was the offensive star, going 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three RBI to pace Tampa Bay to six runs against the White Sox. Former Devil Ray southpaw Jeff Fassero gave up all six runs, five earned, for Chicago. Fassero, 0-3, gave up 12 hits and one walk, striking out two, before yielding to reliever Tony Castillo, who threw four perfect innings in relief.

Tampa Bay outfielder Mike Cameron left the game with a hand injury. Team officials had no information available immediately after the game other than to say it was not a serious injury and Cameron was expected to be back in the lineup by early next week. Fellow Devil Rays outfielder Carlos Beltran is also expected to make a return soon. Beltran, 22, suffered a back injury during spring training and has been on the disabled list since. There is no indication as of yet whether Beltran will be sent to the minor leagues for rehabilitation or if he will immediately rejoin the Devil Rays.
