Lamb Sizzles, Indianapolis Fizzles
It was a quiet day for the Indianapolis Westerners at Vulcan Grounds -- a little too quiet. Pittsburgh Vulcans starter Stanley Lamb silenced the Westerners, holding them to 4 hits and keeping them scoreless in a complete-game 4-0 win.

"It was frustrating against Lamb today," Indianapolis manager said.

The Pittsburgh starting pitcher walked 1 and allowed 4 hits while fanning 4.

This year, Lamb has compiled a 17-13 mark with a 3.27 ERA in 32 starts.
