Brandon Zazueta turned in his biggest game of the season on Wednesday, striking out seven batters over five innings while giving up just two earned runs off seven hits (and not a single walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with more than five innings. For the year, Zazueta has an ERA of 3.61 over 31 innings pitched.
Zazueta's strong effort led Chavez over Arleta and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. Zazueta has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.5 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Arleta has only allowed 4.6 per game this season.
