Phantoms Win at Portland (E), 2-0
In a well-pitched game between the Chicago Phantoms and the Portland (E) Lobster, pitcher Juzo Matsumoto was superb. The Chicago left-hander helped his team win, 2-0. Matsumoto, the winner, moves to 4-3. He threw 5.1 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 9 and giving up 1 walk. John Colon recorded his 14th save for Chicago.

The Phantoms got a big at-bat from first baseman Walter Gravel. For the game, Gravel went 2-3 with 2 doubles and a walk, while adding 2 RBI. In the top of the sixth, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 42nd double of the season gave Chicago a 1-0 lead.

"Juzo giving us the start that he did was huge," said Chicago manager Sam J.

Chicago bumps their record to 89-63 with the win.
