Josh Ruiz turned in yet another pitching appearance with fewer than three walks surrendered on Thursday. He turned in nothing short of a gem: he struck out six batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off five hits (and only one walk).
Even though Ruiz couldn't lead Harlingen South over McAllen, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Ruiz has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 1.1 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering McAllen has only allowed 6.18 per game this season.
