Jojo Gutierrez turned in yet another pitching appearance with fewer than one earned runs surrendered on Tuesday. He produced his best game of the campaign: he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out 11 over six innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Mathis is undefeated when he allows at most one earned run, but 2-6 otherwise.
Gutierrez's strong effort led Mathis over George West and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Longhorns are coming into the match hot: they've won four straight at home. Will Gutierrez and the Pirates have enough to hand them a loss? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
