Jarek Cunningha also got a start, but went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts, and a sacrifice fly RBI.
Nathan Baker took the mound for Mesa in the fifth inning. Baker gave up two runs on three hits in an inning of work, with no walks and one strikeout. The left hander was saddled with the loss.

One negative Cunningham stat… 5 CS to 3 SB… it doesn’t look like he will be able to run at the upper/MLB level(s)
