TOP PERFORMERS
The 74th overall pick out of Dallas Baptist last season, Johnson began the year in the Angels bullpen-without ever appearing in the minors-before joining the Dust Devils in May to be stretched out as a starter. The right-hander looked plenty stretched tonight, allowing just one hit and no walks while striking out 12 in Tri-City's first nine-inning complete game since 2021 (Hector Yan vs. Spokane - 7/24/2021).
Michael Prosecky tossed four scoreless frames in an abbreviated outing while Stu Flesland III and Davis Palermo combined for three shutout frames of relief in the loss.
JERSEY WATCH: Primary (12-11), Redband (4-4), OFT (2-4), Cafecitos (2-1), King Carl (1-1), Star Wars (0-1), Road Grays (17-19), Harry Potter (0-0), Oat Milkers (0-0)
