Ludlow might still be hurting after the 13-3 loss they got from Palmer in their previous meeting two weeks ago. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Santos, who struck out seven batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits (and not a single walk). Now that Ludlow knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
