Gray pitched a seven-inning complete-game shutout in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the Normal CornBelters, allowing just three hits while walking two batters and striking out four.
Though Saturday was just Gray’s second start of the season, the right-hander from Glendale, Arizona has posted an ERA of 0.75, tied for the second-best mark in the league. He has held opponents to a total of eight hits over 12 innings in his two starts.
The 2017 season is Gray’s third with Florence. He has pitched to a total record of 13-5 with a 3.32 ERA and 112 strikeouts over 28 career appearances (26 starts). Gray is scheduled to make his next start Thursday at UC Health Stadium in Florence against the Traverse City Beach Bums.
