McDowell Blanks Cleveland, 5-0
Fans at League Park I witnessed the Cincinnati Reds blank the Cleveland Spiders, 5-0, on the strength of a superb effort from starter Brendan McDowell. The Cincinnati left-hander allowed 9 hits in recording the shutout.

"Brendan was good today, but I don't want to focus too much on a single game," Cincinnati manager Marshall Locke said. "If you're capable of playing at this level, you're capable of having a good game. The real question is if you can learn from that game and repeat it."

This year, McDowell has a 7-11 record with a 3.07 ERA.
