Gabriel Johnson turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out eight over seven innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with less than two walks allowed. This season, Johnson has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 4.92 over 21.3 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.545/0.600/1.030 with 20 runs, plus 12 stolen bases.
Johnson's strong effort led Ruidoso over Sandia Prep and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. Johnson has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 0.5 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Sandia Prep has only allowed 3.38 per game this season.
