Ken Raffensberger went 9 solid innings at Crosley Field as the Cincinnati Reds
beat the Washington Nationals 5 to 0.

Raffensberger(5-4) was tremendous on the mound for Cincinnati.  He gave up
just 5 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings seeing his ERA drop from 3.96 to 3.59.
Cincinnati managed 7 hits in their victory.  

Bob Feller(4-6) ended up with the loss.  He gave up 5 runs and 7 hits in 8
innings.  Raffensberger was obviously very pleased with his performance in
the aftermath of the game, 'It was just one of those games where everything
worked.  My arm felt great, heck, I could have pitched another two or three
innings.  I only hope that I can do it again next time out!'
