While San Diego's offense stole headlines, their pitching staff delivered an equally impressive performance by shutting down any potential threat from Colorado's lineup. Stephen Kolek was instrumental in this effort; he pitched efficiently across nine innings without allowing a single earned run or walk—resulting in an ERA of zero—and striking out seven batters along way.
