Capuano returns after injury to shut out Nationals

May 8, 2007 By WRN Contributor

After leaving his last start early because of injury, Milwaukee Brewers left hander Chris Capuano worked into the 9th and combined to shut out the Washington Nationals 3-0 at Miller Park.

Capuano allowed 7 hits, walked none and struck out a season high 9 hitters in the win.  Geoff Jenkins provided the Brewers all the offense they would need with a three run homer.

After Washington put its first two hitters on base in the 9th, Francisco Cordero got three outs for his 13th save in 13 chances. 

Capuano improved to 5-0, becoming just the third pitcher in team history to win his first five deicisions as a starter.  Bill Wegman started 6-0 in 1994 and Chuck Porter went 5-0 in 1984.

Shortstop J-J Hardy also collected a single in the 5th to extend his hitting streak to 18 straight games.
