Not only did he hurl a shutout, but Houck completed a “Maddux" in a 2-0 victory over Cleveland that took just 1 hour, 49 minutes to complete -- the shortest nine-inning game since June 2, 2010 -- since Armando Galarraga's near-perfect game for Detroit.

A Maddux, in honor of Hall of Famer Greg Maddux, refers to a shutout accomplished in fewer than 100 pitches.
