Deadly Cobras inflict 6-0 shutout on Bears

THRASHING The Macoto Cobras' combination of accurate pitching and strong offense was far too good for the La New Bears, allowing the serpents to avenge Tuesday's loss

Long ball threat Tseng Han-chou put the Whales ahead 2-0 with his fourth homer of the season, a two-run blast off Sinon starter Alfredo Gonzalez in the bottom of the second inning, to give his team a great start.

But that was all the offense the Whales could muster in the game, as they watched the Bulls come back with a third-inning run to reduce the deficit to 2-1, before tying things up in the fifth inning and then claiming a 3-2 lead in the eighth inning on Huang Chung-yi's RBI groundout.

Gonzalez won for the eleventh time this year with seven innings of two-run ball on nine hits, leaving the Whales' American lefty Derrick Van Dusen still in search of his first win with a 0-2 record from two starts.
