Jude Hatamiya gave up the fewest walks he has since back in March on Wednesday. He was dynamite, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits (and only one walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
Hatamiya's strong effort led Albany over Saint Mary and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. The Panthers are limping into the matchup having lost five straight at home dating back to last season. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, but will Hatamiya and the Cougars have enough to stop it? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
