Allen Too Tough, Blanks Boston
Fans at Cleveland Stadium witnessed the Cleveland Indians blank the Boston Red Sox, 7-0 behind a superb effort by starter Johnny Allen. The Cleveland right-hander allowed 4 hits in recording the shutout.

"Johnny was good today but I don't want to focus too much on a single game," Cleveland manager said later. "If you're capable of playing at this level, you're capable of having a good game. The real question is if you can learn from that game and repeat it."

Allen has gone 9-3 this season with an ERA of 3.26 and 70 strikeouts in 146.1 innings pitched. Other clubs are hitting .233 against him.
