Philadelphia Skunks Cleveland, 5-0
It wasn't easy but the Philadelphia Athletics made it look that way.

Starter Bobby Keefe shut out the Cleveland Indians despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Philadelphia Athletics cruised to victory, 5-0. Keefe allowed only 3 hits and rang up 3 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

So far this season Keefe has a 6-14 record, 25 starts, 199.1 innings, 100 strikeouts and a 3.16 ERA.
