Dominant Performance by Benns in Toronto Win | William Benns, who is tied for 9th in the CA in complete games with 3, imposed his will on the Cannons from the get-go. Relying mainly on his slider, the left-hander spearheaded the 5-1 Toronto triumph. With the win over Cincinnati, the Wolves improved to 18-24.
Benns allowed 1 run on 5 hits over 9 innings for the Wolves. With the win, he is 4-3 with an ERA of 4.01.
"When I throw strikes I'm good, if I don't I'm not very good," said Benns. "So I just have to throw strikes." | |
