Benson Twirls Highlanders to Shutout Victory
It wasn't easy but Tim Benson made it look that way.

Benson silenced the Fairfax Flames, 7-0, in a Roanoke Highlanders triumph at Flames Ballpark today. Despite the appearance of dominance, Benson said later that he felt like he was struggling all game. He gave up 3 walks and 5 hits.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I made the decision to bear down and work through it," he said. "I made a few mistakes but it goes to show what you can do with grit and not much else."

So far this season Benson has a record of 2-1 with 18 strikeouts and 13 walks in 30.2 innings and a 2.93 ERA.
