Mojica Deals Blockbusters 6-0 Shutout
The Los Angeles Blockbusters had no answer for Chicago Traders pitcher Jose Mojica. They failed to score a single run against him, losing, 6-0. Los Angeles managed only 2 hits off Mojica, who had 3 strikeouts.

The extraordinarily popular Mojica got a standing ovation from the hometown crowd as he left the field, the applause continuing until he returned from the dugout to tip his cap to the crowd.

"Traders fans are the best fans, in my opinion," he said. "It's a great feeling to throw a shutout under any circumstances, but to do it with the crowd behind you like that is just incredible."

This season, Mojica has fanned 85 in 178.1 innings and collected a 9-11 record with a 3.99 ERA.
