 | Hogs Prieto Has 15 Ks Friday, July 20th, 2029 Everything was working for Tomás Prieto today at Dean Dome. He had the perfect delivery. The ball was moving. The fastball was working. In an unforgettable performance, the 19-year-old Prieto fanned 15 Scorpions and sparked the Savannah Hogs to a 9-3 victory over Scottsdale. He left Scorpions hitters mumbling and muttering at the plate. And when he needed a strikeout, he got it. "I don't know if there are many times that I've seen him throw better," said Savannah manager José Quiñones. "His location and command were really something." In addition to collecting 15 strikeouts over 7.1 innings, Prieto allowed 5 hits and 4 walks in a superlative outing. "I thought I'd make it easy on the guys today," Prieto said with a smile. Checking out his stats for the season, Prieto has registered 1 win and 6 losses in 14 starts, 4.56 ERA and struck out 92 batters in 75 innings. View Boxscore View Game Log |   |
