Castillo Skunks Black Barons
Kansas City Monarchs pitcher Frank Castillo really got it done at Muehlebach Field 1923-1941 in a 6-0 shutout victory over the Birmingham Black Barons, shutting them down on 4 hits.

"It was just one of those games where everything went right. I threw a lot of strikes," Castillo said. "And the pitches they did get to hit, they didn't do anything with them."

The 23-year-old issued no walks and had 14 strikeouts in the Monarchs win.

Castillo has a 7-0 season record so far. In 9 starts, he has fanned 49 batters in 60 innings with a 2.85 ERA.
