San Luis Obispo had no answer to Hunter Hammond on Thursday as he struck out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits (and not a single walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with less than two walks allowed. On the season, Hammond has an ERA of 2.41 over 49.3 innings pitched.
Even though Hammond couldn't lead St. Joseph over San Luis Obispo, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. St. Joseph has been dominating on the road and they'll enter the contest having won five straight away games. Will Hammond and the Knights squad be able to keep the streak alive?
