| Breaking News |  | Wednesday, September 9th, 1936: Kansas City's Ricketts Shuts Out Braves
In an outstanding outing, Timothy Ricketts tamed Wichita on a 4-hit shutout. The Kansas City hurler went the distance, finishing with 6 strikeouts and 2 walks in the 15-0 win.

This year Ricketts has a 19-12 mark in 36 starts with a 3.12 ERA. He has given up 287 hits in 294 innings, struck out 146 and issued 83 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .259 batting average against him.
