15-K Masterpiece for Benton
Everything was working for Al Benton today at Simmons Field. He had the perfect delivery. The ball was moving. The fastball was working.

In an unforgettable performance, the 23-year-old Benton fanned 15 Comets and sparked the Bingo Long's Traveling All Stars to a 5-3 victory over Kenosha. He left Comets hitters mumbling and muttering at the plate. And when he needed a strikeout, he got it.

"I don't know if there are many times that I've seen him throw better," said Bingo Long's manager Nick Hannan. "His location and command were really something."

In addition to collecting 15 strikeouts over 7 innings, Benton allowed 7 hits and no walks in a superlative outing.

"I thought I'd make it easy on the guys today," Benton said with a smile.

To this point in the season Benton has 2 wins and 3 losses and a 6.27 ERA.
