Black Rifles Shut Out Foxes, Ross Winner
Fred Ross put a hex on the Atlanta Foxes in a sparkling 4-0 shutout performance, mesmerizing them on a 8-hit gem.

"I felt good physically," he said after the game. "Everything's comfortable. You should pitch well when that's the case."

The Foxes were anything but comfortable against the 38-year-old Richmond Black Rifles hurler, who fanned 3 and gave up 1 walks.

"Ross used his changeup very well, very effectively," said opposing manager Edward Joseph. "He threw it in hitter's counts."

So far this year, Ross has compiled a 9-11 record with a 2.02 ERA.
