Cincinnati Blanked by Appier
Today was Kevin Appier's turn in the rotation for the Florida Marlins and he made the most of it, shutting out the Cincinnati Reds on 2 hits.

The 30-year-old right-hander led the Marlins to an easy 6-0 victory, allowing 4 walks and tallying 8 strikeouts.

"I hope we miss him next time," Cincinnati manager Eric Deutsch said. "Appier certainly pitched a strong game against us today. He was in a groove, throwing everything for strikes. Throwing hard. Changing speeds."
