Shoemaker Beguiles Kansas City
Matt Shoemaker shut out the Kansas City Royals, 10-0, on a 7-hit masterpiece for the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park.

"He was kind of teasing them with his off-speed stuff, and his fastball was moving everywhere," Detroit skipper Bobby Balwin said afterward.

Shoemaker registered 10 strikeouts and issued 1 walk in pitching a gem.

"We just didn't swing the bats very well. Or else he just pitched good, whichever way you want to look at it," said Kansas City manager Kevin Mitchell after the defeat.

This season, Shoemaker has compiled a 18-4 record with a 2.14 ERA in 32 starts.
