Rocha Holds Drifters Scoreless
José Rocha of the Columbus Red Birds was on top of his game today.

The 34-year-old tantalized the Dam Site Drifters with crisp curves and changeups, mixed in with just enough fastballs to keep the batters honest and came away with a 14-0 shutout.

"He had the changeup working," Dam Site manager Andy Evans said in postgame comments. "You knew it was coming and you still grounded out -- and then he threw it even slower."

The Columbus hurler had 6 strikeouts, gave up 1 walk and surrendered 5 hits in his complete-game effort.

Rocha told reporters after the game that "keeping the ball down is the key to being successful in this league."

"If you don't do that, they'll make you pay," he said.

On the season Rocha has compiled a 4-2 mark with a 3.25 ERA in 9 starts. In pitching 55.1 innings he has 53 strikeouts and 9 walks while limiting the opposition to a .224 batting average.
