The Louisville Colonels got a strong performance from pitcher Fritz Clausen, who stymied the Washington offense en route to a win, 9-1, at Eclipse Park II. Clausen got the win, improving to 14-8. He allowed 9 hits and walked 1 over 9 innings. Clausen allowed 1 run. The Colonels have an impressive 47-25 record.

"I had everything working," said Clausen.
