Behind Cox, Chicago Blanks Denver, 9-0
Larry Cox of the Chicago Traders spun his magic on the Denver Burros. He blanked them, 9-0, on 5 hits, registering 5 strikeouts and 4 walks.

"The bottom line was I just kept the ball down," Cox said. "My breaking stuff was down. Everything was down."

Talking to reporters in the postgame interview, Chicago skipper Larry Link said the team "got solid pitching, good defense and took great team at-bats in a lot of different situations."

"Larry pitched really well but this was a solid performance by everyone," he said.

In 26 starts this season, Cox has fashioned a 15-7 record and a 3.29 ERA.
