Eagles Squelch Desperados Offense in Shutout Win
The Indianapolis Eagles downed the Austin Desperados, 6-0, at Dell Diamond. Stellar pitching by Jesse Walker had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who is tied for 9th in the NC in innings pitched with 164.2, handcuffed his opponent all game. The Eagles now have a mark of 71-62.

Chris Boyd, the 13th overall pick in the 2021 draft, took Austin hurler J.R. Mitchell deep in the top of the first. His solo home run put the Eagles on top, 1-0. In all, Boyd had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

Indianapolis manager Pete DuBay commended his team for delivering "maximum effort."
