Russell Pettis was dynamite on Monday, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out nine over four innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the season, Pettis has an ERA of 1.67 over 21 innings pitched.
Pettis' strong effort led Elk Grove over Cosumnes Oaks and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Pettis has dominated as far as innings are concerned (he's averaged 5.2 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Cosumnes Oaks has only allowed 5.14 per game this season.
