Jacob Roa turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits while striking out six 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, Roa has an ERA of 1.94 over 47 innings pitched.
Roa's strong effort led Rio Mesa over Ventura and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Roa has dominated as far as innings are concerned (he's averaged 5.7 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Ventura has only allowed 6.79 per game this season.
