Hereford Baffles Washington Batters
In a seemingly effortless performance, Kip Hereford of the Louisville Colts shot down the Washington Federals, 5-0, on 4 hits.

"Kip was just locating so well and using his pitches," Louisville manager said later. "He wasn't leaving anything over the plate."

Hereford recorded 5 strikeouts and no walks in a strong outing.

"When he needed to make pitches, he elevated his game," Washington manager said in postgame comments to BNN. "We couldn't get a key hit off him."

This year, Hereford has recorded a 8-3 mark. In 12 starts he has fanned 49 batters in 94 innings with a 4.60 ERA.
