 | Saturday, September 13th, 2008: Worcester Holds Jefferson County Scoreless
Rafael Lara of the Worcester Saucers was on fire against Jefferson County. He shut them down 5-0 on 5 hits and no runs with 5 strikeouts and no walks.
"The first two pitches I'm looking for an out, a ground ball or a fly ball," Lara said. "I'm trying to get quick outs. I've never been a big believer in trying to strike a guy out from the very first pitch. It's too easy to end up behind in the count doing that."
This year Lara has gone 9-7 with an ERA of 2.99 and has 125 strikeouts in 147.2 innings.
