| Breaking News |  | Sunday, July 16th, 2006: Penn Dominates Defenders in Shutout
Before the game Hayden Penn liked his chances and his instincts proved to be right. In a superb outing the Caravan pitcher whitewashed the Colorado Springs Defenders 1-0.
Penn said in the clubhouse afterward, "I just had a feeling it was going to be my day. My control was awesome. I could throw my curveball even when I was behind in the count."
The Saint Paul starter held Colorado Springs scoreless, giving up 3 hits while registering 7 strikeouts and issuing no walks.
"We didn't have very many good at-bats," the Defenders manager said in his postgame interview.
"When that happens, you usually lose."
So far this season Penn has a record of 2-3 with 42 strikeouts and 5 walks in 57.1 innings and a 2.35 ERA.
