On Friday Rico Montoya was dialed in and didn't allow a single earned run and only one hit while striking out eight over five innings pitched. He played a big game the last time he faced Hatch Valley, so the team probably should've seen him coming. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with more than five innings. On the year, Montoya has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 6.31 over 47.7 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.512/0.602/0.849 with 43 runs.
Montoya and Robertson will challenge East Mountain at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Montoya has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 1.6 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering East Mountain has only allowed 9.36 per game this season.
