Sadly, Andre Mendoza posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Downey over Turlock on Wednesday. Mendoza made a splash, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits while striking out eight over 4.1 innings pitched. It looks like he has Turlock's number considering he had a big game the last time he faced them, too.
Even though Mendoza couldn't lead Downey over Turlock, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Mendoza has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 0.5 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Turlock has only allowed 6.44 per game this season.
