Owen Gives New York Goose Eggs
Bruce Owen hurled nothing but zeros at the New York Empires in an impressive outing at Atlantic Station Field. The Atlanta pitcher allowed 5 hits, fanned 4, and walked 1 in blanking New York, 2-0.

"There were a lot of frustrated guys walking back to the dugout," New York manager Dan Whiting said. "Not a fun day."

This season, Owen has crafted a 12-6 mark with a 2.76 ERA in 156.1 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .242 against him and he has 94 strikeouts.
