St. Louis Roughnecks pitcher Frank Foreman delivered a dominant performance yesterday, shutting out the Brooklyn Hitmen 4-0. Mixing fastballs and changeups, Foreman kept the Hitmen off balance throughout the game, allowing just five hits while striking out two and walking three.

"I think every time we were looking for a fastball, he threw a changeup, and every time we were looking for a changeup, he threw a fastball," said Brooklyn manager John Rallis after the game.
