Goose eggs were the order of the day for the Melbourne Meteors as starter Vicente Espinosa shut them out, 1-0, at Monks Stadium. The Daegu pitcher struck out 6 and walked 0 while allowing 5 hits.
"Espinosa was good but he wasn't flawless," Melbourne manager Bob Meteors said. "We had a few opportunities to make something happen and we didn't do it. Not to take anything away from Daegu, but this is on us."
This season to date, Espinosa has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses with a 3.86 ERA, has appeared in 6 games and struck out 30 in 37.1 innings.
