Mercado Fashions Shutout Against Lake Elsinore
Goose eggs were the order of the day for the Lake Elsinore Storm as starter Mel Mercado shut them out, 14-0, at Tony Gwynn Stadium. The Mexico City pitcher struck out 5 and walked 3 while allowing 6 hits.

"Mercado was good but he wasn't flawless," Lake Elsinore manager Bobby Vargas said. "We had a few opportunities to make something happen and we didn't do it. Not to take anything away from Mexico City, but this is on us."

This season, Mercado has fanned 35 in 41.2 innings and collected a 4-1 record with a 3.46 ERA.
