Eagles Shut Out Bulls, 4-0
Washington beat Kansas City on the strength of starter Alberto Vinueza's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-0. After losing, Kansas City is 10-7.

Washington used the bat of Joe Ballard to get the win. The left fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Eagles ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

Vinueza pitched well, despite being a bit under the weather. "To be honest, I was sick before the game," he said. "Just a stomach bug."
