Baltimore Goes Scoreless Against Townsel, Dynamos
It wasn't easy but the Detroit Dynamos made it look that way.

Starter Lew Townsel shut out the Baltimore Clippers despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Detroit Dynamos cruised to victory, 3-0. Townsel allowed only 3 hits and rang up 5 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

This season, Townsel has worked 81 innings with 35 strikeouts en route to a 6-2 record and a 1.44 ERA.
