""I wanted to attack," Rojas said. "I felt more confident throwing fastballs.""
""He was dialed in on the mound," coach Frank Medina said. "Extremely efficient. He is usually plagued by 3-and-2 counts and walks, but today he had no walks and most of his 14 strikeouts came on four or less pitches. He was nasty.""
