He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off seven hits (and not a single walk). He also tossed no walks, which is notable because Nordhoff is 6-2 when he allows at most two walks, but 5-9 otherwise. Haley was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.
In other batting news, Jaxson Middough was excellent, going 2-for-3 with two runs and one double. He is becoming a predictor of Nordhoff's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 7-11 when he doesn't).
