Arturo Alvarado produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Desert Mirage to the win on Tuesday. Twentynine Palms had no answer to Alvarado as he struck out 11 batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and five unearned) runs off five hits. Alvarado has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive pitching appearances.
Alvarado's strong effort led Desert Mirage over Twentynine Palms and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Alvarado has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.7 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Twentynine Palms has only allowed 6.33 per game this season.
