Baird Hurls Cape Town to Shutout Win
Tommy Baird was in command in his outing against the Pretoria Rhinos. He hurled the Cape Town Storm to a 4-0 shutout victory, yielded 4 hits and chalked up 5 strikeouts and 1 walk.

"A complete-game shutout is fun territory for me," he told reporters in the postgame interview. "I had good balance and mechanics and was able to keep the ball down. When I do that, good things happen."

This year, Baird has 4 wins and no losses and a 1.36 ERA.
