Rutherford Wins Number 250
Damon Rutherford of the Brooklyn Bluebirds nailed down his 250th career victory with a 10-0 win over the Washington Eagles today at Flatbush Park. Rutherford, 38, fired 4 strikeouts over 9 innings of work. He gave up no runs, no walks and allowed 7 hits.

"I feel great," Rutherford said afterward. "I try not to get caught up in the moment. It's hard with so much press coverage these days, but I tune all that out when I go out there and pitch."

Rutherford's lifetime won-lost record is 250 wins and 193 losses with a 3.15 ERA.
