DAVIS, Calif. (KEYT) – UCSB ace Jackson Flora shined on the road as the Gauchos match a program record with their 13th straight win blanking UC Davis 4-0.
Flora, who is expected to be a high first round selection in this summer’s MLB Draft, pitched 7 1/3 innings of 2-hit shutout ball, striking out 11 and walking just one. He is now 5-0 on the year and lowered his ERA to a microscopic 1.15 on the season.
The Gauchos (14-2, 4-0 in Big West) collected 11 hits which included a 2-run double by Nick Husovsky in the fifth inning.
