Chicago boxer dies in first title fight
Tuesday, November 24
CHICAGO, June 28 (UPI) -- Jon Busch earned his fifth shutout Saturday to lower his goals against average to 0.85 when the Chicago Fire tied the San Jose Earthquakes, 0-0.
Busch had to make just one save -- and was saved by the crossbar and the post in the second half.
Chicago goalie Joe Cannon, who had four saves, also had his fifth shutout of the season.
The Fire's defense helped end a three-game losing streak but Chicago is still winless in four straight -- as are the Earthquakes.
