Tulsa, Cortez Snuff Out Cardinals
Jorge Cortez of the Tulsa Drillers was on fire against the Springfield Cardinals at Hammons Field. He shut them out, 5-0, on 2 hits, collecting 10 strikeouts and allowing 2 walks.

"The first two pitches I'm looking for an out, a ground ball or a fly ball," Cortez said later. "I'm trying to get quick outs. I've never been a big believer in trying to strike a guy out from the very first pitch. It's too easy to end up behind in the count doing that."

This year, Cortez has a 3-2 mark in 5 starts with a 3.35 ERA. He has given up 32 hits in 37.2 innings, struck out 35 and issued 14 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .230 batting average against him.
