Broncos Blank Redskins, Cardenas Wins
Saturday, July 9th , 2016
Francisco Cardenas of the Alamogordo Broncos was on top of his game.

The 20-year-old tantalized the Boise Redskins with crisp curves and changeups, mixed in with just enough fastballs to keep the batters honest, shutting them out, 1-0.

"He had the changeup working," Boise manager said in postgame comments. "You knew it was coming and you still grounded out -- and then he threw it even slower."

The Alamogordo hurler had 8 strikeouts, gave up 1 walk and surrendered 2 hits in his complete-game effort.

Cardenas told reporters after the game that "keeping the ball down is the key to being successful in this league."

"If you don't do that, they'll make you pay," he said.

So far this season, Cardenas has 6 wins and 10 losses and a 4.03 ERA.
