Duvall Superb Against St. Louis
The St. Louis Cardinals were almost helpless in their 5-0 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates and hurler Jim Duvall. Duvall kept the Cardinals confused all game, spinning a 4-hit shutout.

"Tip your hat to Duvall," St. Louis manager Brock Naff said in a postgame interview. "He kept us off balance all night."

The 32-year-old right-hander had 1 walk and 8 strikeouts in a strong performance.

"It just happened to be one of those games where even when I made mistakes, they either fouled them off or someone would make a fine defensive play," Duvall said. "It was just one of those games that things went my way."

Thus far this season, Duvall has worked 179 innings with 161 strikeouts en route to a 14-11 record and a 4.37 ERA.
