Matthew Porter produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Durham to the win on Tuesday. Pierce had no answer to Porter as he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out nine over seven innings pitched. Porter has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive pitching appearances.
Porter and Durham have the luxury of staying home for another game and will welcome Live Oak at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Porter has dominated as far as ERA are concerned (he's averaged .76 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Live Oak has only allowed 3.3 per game this season.
