Saito Fires Shutout in Spiders Win
Today was Masaki Saito's turn in the rotation for the Cleveland Spiders and he made the most of it, shutting out the New York Yankees on 5 hits.

The 30-year-old right-hander led the Spiders to an easy 7-0 victory, allowing 3 walks and tallying 8 strikeouts.

"I hope we miss him next time," New York manager Patrick McQuail said. "Saito certainly pitched a strong game against us today. He was in a groove, throwing everything for strikes. Throwing hard. Changing speeds."

So far this year Saito has 8 wins and 4 losses and a 4.31 ERA.
