Mojica Now 4-8 After Subduing Explorers
Jose Mojica never let the Explorers get in a groove. The right-hander used his bread and butter, his sinker, to pitch the Traders to a win, 5-0. The third-place Traders have won 6 straight.

Mojica was in the zone all game. He frustrated St. Louis hitters while giving the Traders 8 innings of quality work. Mojica threw 90 pitches, allowing 3 hits and getting 3 punchouts.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Mojica. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."
