Seward Baffles Pittsburgh Batters
In an impressive outing, Ed Seward whitewashed the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-0.

"I'm getting a lot more downward movement instead of side to side. That side-to-side stuff can get hit a long way," said Seward, who is throwing with more of an overhand motion.

"It's not rocket science. It was just a little adjustment, but that's all it took."

The St. Louis hurler held Pittsburgh scoreless, allowed 5 hits, chalked up 2 strikeouts and yielded 1 walk.

This season to date Seward has a record of 11 wins and 13 losses with a 4.55 ERA, has appeared in 28 games and struck out 52 in 203.2 innings.
