Gonell Silences Santa Ana, 4-0
Tuesday, August 11th , 2026
The Providence Hex shut out the Santa Ana Black Aces, 4-0, behind the strong pitching of Ed Gonell. Gonell surrendered only 9 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 2.
Following the last out, Gonell appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Santa Ana manager Elias Quesada, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Gonell's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.
The Black Aces skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Hex press conference, Gonell confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.
"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Gonell said.
"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Providence manager Dave Hale added.
Up to now Gonell has recorded a record of 11-9. In 24 starts he has fanned 99 batters in 163.1 innings with a 3.91 ERA.
