Warriors Blank Omaha, Johnsen Winner
Sunday, July 15th , 1917
In a remarkable performance, Fort Wayne Warriors starter Frank Johnsen beat the Omaha Packers, 8-0, in an impressive 1-hit shutout.

"My arm felt good, mechanics were good and my stuff was working," he said later. "It doesn't get any better than this."

The Warriors hurler finished with 2 strikeouts and no walks. He showed pinpoint control and a sharp fastball.

"It was a rough one for my guys," Omaha manager Ed Dibrell said, following the game. "We weren't at our best and their guy was."

Johnsen has made 17 starts so far this year and put up a 7-8 won-lost record with a 4.39 ERA. In 127 innings he has allowed 132 hits, walked 38 and struck out 45.
