Some additional bad news is that in the 3 games the Charros managed just 17 hits and 1 run. They also were 1 for 24 with runners in scoring position, an .041 batting average. Without providing key hits that produced runs, the excellent pitching by the Charros pitchers was wasted. The starters and relievers allowed just 8 runs in the 3 games.
Newly acquired starter, Matthew Zielinski (0-1) took the loss. He gave up 6 hits, including a home run, and 3 runs in the first 2 innings but settled down in his 5 innings on the mound.
