Mussina Puts Spell on Boston
Mike Mussina of the Cincinnati Reds spun his magic on the Boston Red Sox today. He blanked them 9-0 on 7 hits, registering 11 strikeouts and no walks.

"The bottom line was I just kept the ball down," Mussina said. "My breaking stuff was down. Everything was down."

Talking to reporters in the postgame interview, Cincinnati skipper Eric Deutsch said the team "got solid pitching, good defense and took great team at-bats in a lot of different situations."

"Mike pitched really well but this was a solid performance by everyone," he said.

This season Mussina has compiled a 9-3 record with a 3.22 ERA in 20 starts.
