Minnesota Hopeless Against Coates
Green Bay's Eric Coates brought his best stuff to Metrodome, shutting down and shutting out the Minnesota Vikings, 6-0. He racked up 9 strikeouts, surrendered 4 hits, and issued 3 walks on his way to the victory.

"We barely made him work at all," Minnesota manager Jim Lee said later. "Green Bay could probably pitch him again tomorrow if they wanted."

This year, Coates has gone 7-2 with an ERA of 2.59 and has 72 strikeouts in 83.1 innings.
