The road warrior of the Winnipeg Goldeyes pitching staff was back at it again Wednesday night. Winnipeg starter Matt Rusch led the Goldeyes to a 7-0 win over the St. Paul Saints at Midway Stadium. Thanks to the Wichita Wingnuts beat the Gary SouthShore RailCats, Winnipeg picked up a game in the American Associations wild card race and now trail Gary by 2 ½ games. Combined with Tuesday nights 7-0 win, its the fourth time in franchise history the Goldeyes have posted back-to-back shutouts and first time since 2003. Rusch, who improved to 5-0 on the road and lowered his ERA to 2.38 away from Shaw Park with the win, gave up just three hits in the game for his second career complete-game shutout. In fact, St. Paul never had a runner in scoring position in the contest. He fanned nine, which is a season-high for him. “Every game right now is big and he knows that,” Goldeyes pitching coach Jamie Vermilyea said of his starter. “He built off Salamidas start last night. He was getting strike one and throwing his fastball down in the zone.” Winnipeg broke the game open early with a five-run second inning. Ryan Scoma and Ray Sadler each walked to lead off the inning. Scoma score on a Josh Mazzola single, while Casey Haerther singled in Sadler. Mazzola then scored on a Luis Alen fielders choice. A double from Kevin Moesquit chased St. Paul starter Dylan Thomas from the game. Alen would then score on a Tyler Graham sac fly and Fehlandt Lentini singled to score Moesquit. In total, Winnipeg sent all nine batters to the plate and scored the five runs on four hits. “We got on the board early and kept that lead. It allows our starter to get a groove,” Vermilyea said. “Our hitters did a great job. We werent swinging at balls and were making them throw strikes.” An inning later, Haerther singled in Mazzola to increase Winnipegs lead to 6-0. The Goldeyes finished the scoring in the fourth inning when Graham, who singled before stealing second and third base, came in to score on a Yurendell de Caster chopper to short. “You have to put the pressure on the other team and make them make plays,” Vermilyea said of Winnipegs active base runners. “None of St. Pauls pitchers were quick getting the ball to home plate.” Offensively, Haerther paced Winnipeg with three hits in the game and also had two RBI. As a team, the Goldeyes had five stolen bases. Thomas suffered the loss, dropping to 1-6 on the season. Winnipeg will try for the series win in the four-game set Thursday night.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The talk all week was whether former Ohio State assistant and current Rutgers coach Chris Ash could take advantage of his familiarity with the Buckeyes defense.The answer: Forget about it.The stifling Ohio State defense overwhelmed the Scarlet Knights on the way to methodical 58-0 dismantling Saturday at Ohio Stadium.J.T. Barrett broke the school record for career touchdown passes with the third of his four TD tosses Saturday, and the surging Buckeyes (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) gave Ash a rude welcome in his return to The Horseshoe.They smothered us, said Ash, who spent the past two seasons as a co-defensive coordinator for the Buckeyes.No. 2 Ohio States superb defense never allowed the Scarlet Knights (2-3, 0-2) to penetrate deeper than the Ohio State 38 yard line. They sacked quarterback Chris Laviano three times and allowed just 33 passing yards. They forced Rutgers to punt on each of its 10 drives that didnt end a half.Ash was asked if the Ohio State defense performed better than advertised.They played exceptionally well today, so no, they were not better than I thought, and I thought all along they were pretty darn good, Ash said.Barrett was 21 for 29 for 238 yards before giving way to backup Joe Burrow near the end of the third quarter. He now has 59 TD passes in 27 career games for Ohio State.Theres no doubt hes a Heisman candidate, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said.Freshman tailback Mike Weber continued to cement his place in the Ohio State (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) backfield, rushing for 144 yards on 14 attempts before also taking a seat in the third quarter. He also scored a touchdown, cutting around the left end and racing untouched for a 46-yard score 2 1/2 minutes into the second half.I was just following my blocks, Weber said. They opened up the holes so I could run through. Give credit to the O-line. Today showed how much talent we have.Ohio State piled up 669 yards of total offense, including 410 on the ground. Barrett threw touchdown passes to four receivers.Safety Chris Cioffi had one of the few highlights for Rutgers, picking off Barretts pass on Ohio States opening drive.ddddddddddddWe came out and fought in the beginning, but the wheels just fell off, Cioffi said.THE TAKEAWAYRutgers: After playing tough against Iowa in 14-7 loss last week, Ash and the Scarlet Knights showed they will need a talent upgrade to keep up with the Big Tens elite teams. It didnt help that star wide receiver and kick returner Janarion Grant suffered a season-ending injury in the Iowa game.We played extremely well last week, Ash said. But this was a completely different animal; the players, their offensive system is sophisticated, they have a lot of weapons. They do an outstanding job.Ohio State: The Buckeyes took care of business again and blew out an overmatched team. They show no signs of slowing down.DEPENDABLE SAMUELOhio State H-back Curtis Samuel was as dependable as ever, catching seven passes for 86 yards and a touchdown, and running for another 68 yards. Hes established himself as a potent dual threat and, as Meyer predicted in the preseason, one of the teams most valuable playmakers.POLL IMPLICATIONSProbably none. Ohio State was impressive but is likely to stay at No. 2 in the AP Top 25 poll behind Alabama.QUOTEABLEDespite everything Ive been though, it feels surreal, said Barrett of breaking the school record for TD passes. Thats crazy that I was just trying to do my part and do my best for the team and then broke the record.UP NEXTRutgers: The Scarlets Knights rough ride through the conference continues with a night game at home against No. 4 Michigan.Ohio State: The Buckeyes will be heavily favored again when they play Indiana in another appetizer game next Saturday before the Big Ten main course.--Follow Mitch Stacy at http://twitter.com/mitchstacyFor some of his other recent stories: http://bigstory.ap.org/content/mitch-stacy ' ' '
