Veirs Pitches Gem as Lords Beat Atlanta, 1-0
It wasn't easy but the Baltimore Lords made it look that way.

Starter Pete Veirs shut out the Atlanta Generals despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Baltimore Lords cruised to victory, 1-0. Veirs allowed only 3 hits and rang up 4 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."
