Bill Mueller had 2 base hits and 2 RBI as the Caracas Leones beat the Chicago
Rastafarians by a score of 5 to 0.

Caracas set the tone of the game in the first inning with 2 runs using 2 hits.
After two were out Mark Loretta keyed the rally when he drew a walk.  Gary
Sheffield came to the plate and cracked a two-run shot (his 16th of the
season).  That was all the runs Roger Clemens(17-7) needed.  Caracas managed
7 in their victory.  

Scot Shields gained credit for his 18th save.  Rich Harden(9-7) was given the
loss.  Despite taking the loss, he whiffed 11 batters in 6 innings.

Caracas extended their winning streak to 6 games. 'It seems we can't lose
these days', Alan Dyche volunteered after the game.  Then after a moment to
reflect he lamented, 'Oh great! Now I've gone and jinxed us!'
