AMARILLO, Texas (June 8, 2022) – The Frisco RoughRiders pitched their third shutout of the season behind Cole Ragans in a 4-0 win over the Amarillo Sod Poodles from HODGETOWN on Wednesday night.

Box Score

Ragans tossed one of the best starts of his career on Wednesday, firing a career-best 6.1 innings, allowing just three infield singles while striking out nine and walking one. Chase Lee (0.2 innings) and Fernery Ozuna (2.0 innings) combined to finish off the shutout win for Frisco (28-25).

On the offensive side, the Riders found the scoreboard in the top of the fifth when J.P. Martinez reached on an infield single before Trey Hair hammered an opposite-field home run to make it a 2-0 ballgame. It was the second home run in as many games for Hair and his eighth of the season.

In the seventh, Dustin Harris led the game off with a solo home run - his 10th of the year - and, after Martinez tripled, Kellen Strahm ripped an RBI single to increase the lead to 4-0.

In the loss, Slade Cecconi (2-3) went a career-high 8.0 innings for Amarillo (25-28), ceding four runs while striking out seven.

The Riders and Sod Poodles meet again for the third game of the series at 7:05 p.m. on Thursday, June 9th from HODGETOWN. RHP Zak Kent (1-1, 5.61) goes for the RoughRiders against RHP Bryce Jarvis (2-2, 6.44).

About the RoughRiders

The Frisco RoughRiders are the Double-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. The team was founded in 2003 and has finished first among all Double-A franchises in attendance for 15 consecutive seasons (2005-2019). In August 2014, the RoughRiders were purchased by an ownership group led by Chuck Greenberg. Since then, the new ownership group, together with the City of Frisco, has spearheaded numerous major franchise enhancements, investing over $8 million in a wide array of facility upgrades and improvements, including a state-of-the-art HD video board, sound system, Bull Moose Saloon, InTouch Grille, Riders Outpost Team Store and the world's largest water feature in a sports facility, the massive Lazy River. These enhancements earned the Riders and the City of Frisco Ballpark Digest's prestigious "Best Ballpark Renovation" award for two consecutive years (2015 and 2016). More than 170 former RoughRiders players have gone on to play Major League Baseball. For more information on the Frisco RoughRiders, please visit RidersBaseball.com or contact [email protected].
