Leandro Roberts turned in nothing short of a gem on Monday: he struck out seven batters over 6.1 innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off five hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his sixth in a row with more than six strikeouts. For the year, Roberts has an ERA of 2.00 over 28 innings pitched.
Even though Roberts couldn't lead Monterey over Smith County, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Sadly, Roberts' big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped Monterey's three-game streak of wins on the road. With the streak broken, Roberts and Monterey surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Tuesday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
