Apostles 4, Sunkings 0

In the first game of a day-night doubleheader, Carlos Zambrano shuts out the Bloomington squad, 4-0. Sunking pitchers had trouble with the strike zone all game, walking 5 and hitting 3. Unfortunately for the home team, four of those walks came in the 4th, when Saint Gabriel scored all four of its runs. Quentin's Yard was taking away singles and homers all day, as no fewer than six BP SI and two BP HR were hit in the game.

Carlos Zambrano mowed down 10 Bloomington batters as the Saint Gabriel
Apostles defeated the Bloomington Sunkings 4 to 0 at Quinten's
Yard.
 
Zambrano(4-3) simply dominated Bloomington.  He allowed just 4 hits and 4
walks in 9 innings seeing his ERA drop from 4.76 to 4.31.  The pitchers took
over after the 4th inning as neither team was able to score again.  
 
The losing pitcher was Chad Gaudin(4-5).  He allowed Saint Gabriel 4 runs in 3
and 2/3 innings of work.  Zambrano was humble when questioned about his
performance, 'Well, I felt pretty confident in my pitches tonight.  But, I
had great support behind me and I just threw what was called.  That was an
extremely well called game!'
