Right-hander Juan D. Nunez mesmerized the New Britain Rock Cats while leading the Akron RubberDucks to a 2-0 victory. Chad Cochrane earned save number 13 this season. Akron is now 41-25, while New Britain is 37-30.

Nunez, a native of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, was dealing all game. He kept New Britain hitters off-balance, while giving the RubberDucks 8 quality innings. Nunez threw 106 pitches, allowing 4 hits and striking out 6.

"Bottom line," said New Britain skipper Gary Kendall, "we didn't play well enough to win."
