Rutherford Fashions Shutout Against Washington
Magic was in the air and on the mound at Flatbush Park, as Damon Rutherford held the Washington Eagles spellbound in his 2-0 shutout victory. The Brooklyn Bluebirds pitcher went the distance, rang up 5 strikeouts, walked 0, and held the Eagles to 7 hits.

"He just had us in his thrall," Washington manager Brandon Tucker said. "We couldn't put anything together against him."

So far this year, Rutherford has a 5-5 record with a 2.67 ERA.
