Carter, Bellflowers Get 7-0 Win
The Buffalo Bellflowers picked up a win at Centerville Grounds, topping the Long Island Torpedoes, 7-0. On the mound for Buffalo was right-hander Keith Carter. He played a principal role in the triumph. The Bellflowers, now 61-45, have won 5 in a row.

The Bellflowers liked what they saw from Carter. The 20-year- old pitcher had a commanding presence on the mound, limiting the Torpedoes to no runs on 1 hit over 8.1 innings, and striking out 7.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Carter. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
