Meanwhile, Zazueta pitched 3.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits. Martinez has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances. At the plate, Martinez scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances, while Zazueta scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-4. The dominant performance also gave Zazueta a new career-high in doubles (two).
They weren't the only ones making solid contact as two players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Benji Godoy, who scored a run while going 2-for-3. Daniel Zelaya also deserves some recognition as he scored his first run of the season.
Arleta has traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-4 record this season. Even worse, they were so close so many times: the losses came by an average of only 1.67 runs. Chavez's victory bumped their record up to 5-3.
