Smithson Hurls Gears to 6-0 Shutout Win
Mike Smithson dominated the Buffalo Bisons with a brilliant 4-hit shutout in a Grand Rapids Gears 6-0 triumph at Manatees Ballpark. The Grand Rapids hurler fanned 1 and walked 4 in the game and was singled out for praise afterward by the opposing manager.

"He really kept us in check today," Bisons skipper said in postgame comments. "Everything looked to be moving. Seemed like the pitch was right down the middle and it went over down and away. We took some pathetic swings."

This season Smithson has been credited with no saves. In no relief appearances and 109 innings he has a 7-6 won-lost mark, 3.06 ERA and 53 strikeouts
