Carlton Breezes to Shutout Victory

Steve Carlton of the St. Louis Cardinals shut out the Atlanta Braves, 4-0, on 4 hits. He had 4 strikeouts and 4 walks in a strong outing at Atlanta Stadium.

"He just came out and was on the attack from the first pitch he threw," St. Louis manager Red Schoendienst said later. "When Steve stays ahead in the count, he does well. That's the key."

This year, Carlton has posted a 3-1 mark in 7 starts and has a 3.49 ERA.
