Mesa Ridge came up short on Thursday despite Locklen Lemley delivering his best game to date. Lemley was dynamite, striking out nine batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in five consecutive pitching appearances.
Lemley and Mesa Ridge will head out on the road to take on Pueblo Centennial at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Lemley has dominated as far as earned runs are concerned (he's averaged 0.8 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Pueblo Centennial has only allowed three per game this season.
