Brown Zeroes in On Pittsburgh
Kevin Brown of the Kansas City Royals spun his magic on the Pittsburgh Pirates today. He blanked them 8-0 on 6 hits, registering 8 strikeouts and no walks.

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

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

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

In pitching stats this season Brown has rung up 5 wins and 1 loss in 8 games. He has an ERA of 2.89 and has fanned 67 batters in 62.1 innings.
