Villalba hurler Rosario Ponce put on quite a show, as he blitzed the Yabucoa Dulceros with a 4-0 shutout. He baffled them with fastballs and changeups, allowing 4 hits with 4 strikeouts and 1 walk to pick up the win.

"I think every time we were looking for a fastball, he threw a changeup and every time we were looking for a changeup, he threw a fastball," Yabucoa manager Cástico Beberra told reporters after the game.

Up to now Ponce has compiled an ERA of 1.79 with a 2-3 mark over 6 starts. He has 17 strikeouts in 45.1 innings and has held opponents to a .211 batting average.
