Sebastian Mendoza turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday: he kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out seven over four innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his fifth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the season, Mendoza has an ERA of 1.88 over 26 innings pitched.
Mendoza's strong effort led Kofa over Youngker and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Mendoza has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 1.5 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Youngker has only allowed 6.31 per game this season.
