Elsner Crafts 4-0 Shutout Versus Cincinnati
In a seemingly effortless performance, Bruce Elsner of the Cleveland Bobcats shot down the Cincinnati Packers, 4-0, on 6 hits.

"Bruce was just locating so well and using his pitches," Cleveland manager Daniel Mays said later. "He wasn't leaving anything over the plate."

Elsner recorded 6 strikeouts and 2 walks in a strong outing.

"When he needed to make pitches, he elevated his game," Cincinnati manager Martin Abresch said in postgame comments to BNN. "We couldn't get a key hit off him."
