Escobedo Handcuffs Desperados, Blue Jays Seize 1-0 Advantage in DS
The stakes were high. Cesar Escobedo was ready.

The left-hander turned in a performance for the ages at Engineers Ballpark, pitching a 9-inning, complete-game shutout to lead the St. Catharines Blue Jays to victory in Game 1 of the Division Series. Escobedo held the Santa Rosa Desperados to 6 hits and 1 walk, while striking out 10. The win got the best-of-7 series off to a good start for St. Catharines, which now leads 1-0.

Escobedo was in the zone all game. He frustrated Santa Rosa hitters while giving the Blue Jays 9 innings of quality work. Escobedo threw 114 pitches, allowing 6 hits and getting 10 punchouts.

"Cesar was cooking with gas," said St. Catharines manager Walt DeRosier.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Engineers Ballpark in St. Catharines.
