Buck O'Brien of the Hartford Dark Blues spun his magic on the Seattle Rainiers. He blanked them, 6-0, on 4 hits, registering 10 strikeouts and 2 walks.

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

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

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

Thus far this season, O'Brien has tossed 191.1 innings in 25 starts, fanned 173 batters, walked 65 and put up a 4.99 ERA with 11 wins and 12 losses.
