Carlos Rivera turned in yet another pitching appearance with more than six strikeouts on Thursday. He was dynamite, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits.
Rivera and King will be playing in front of their home fans against Alonso at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. Rivera 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 Alonso has only allowed 3.12 per game this season.
