Jenrry Mejia (3-1, 1.82) won his third straight start by holding the Miracle to one run on three hits in seven innings.  Mejia struck out a season-high seven batters and walked one.  Since the calender turned to May, Mejia has been positively dominant: 0.43 ERA, 21 IP, 11 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 14 K, 2.00 GB/FB, .153 Opp Avg. Oops.  Sorry about that, FSL.  The 19-year old is now third in the league in ERA.
