Tristan Amusten was dynamite on Tuesday, not allowing a single earned run while striking out seven over six innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his fourth in a row with less than two walks allowed. This year, Amusten has an ERA of .88 over 24 innings pitched.
Amusten's strong effort led Chavez over Shafter and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Amusten has dominated as far as ERA are concerned (he's averaged .88 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Shafter has only allowed 3.96 per game this season.
