Zack Escalera turned in nothing short of a gem on Wednesday: he struck out eight batters over six innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his fifth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the year, Escalera has an ERA of 3.30 over 57.3 innings pitched.
Escalera's strong effort led Charter Oak over West Covina and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Charter Oak is 9-1 against West Covina going back to March of 2019, a lead they'll look to extend.
