Razor-Sharp Braddock Blanks Chicago
It wasn't easy but Amos Braddock made it look that way.

Braddock silenced the Chicago Zephyrs, 4-0, in a Cleveland Bears triumph at West Side Oval. Despite the appearance of dominance, Braddock said that he felt like he was struggling all game. He gave up 1 walk and 2 hits.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I made the decision to bear down and work through it," he said. "I made a few mistakes but it goes to show what you can do with grit and not much else."

On the year, Braddock has compiled a 10-5 mark with a 3.33 ERA.
