Detroit Downs Washington as Ostermueller Tosses 5-0 Shutout
Tuesday, May 14th , 1946
It was not a good day at the plate for the Washington Senators. They came up empty when it mattered against Detroit Tigers left-hander Fritz Ostermueller, who scattered 6 hits across 9 innings and held the Senators scoreless.

"We had 6 hits so I know he wasn't completely untouchable, but he was close," Washington manager Ossie Bluege said later.

Ostermueller chalked up 1 strikeout and 2 walks in the 5-0 Tigers win.

On his stats sheet this season, Ostermueller shows a 5-0 record, 5 starts, 40.1 innings, 13 strikeouts and a 2.01 ERA.
