Like the other rookies we’ve seen in the last year or two, Kolek has a poise about the mound. He doesn’t get bothered and seems to have a gameplan and is able to stick to it. We’ve come a long way from resting our hopes on Vin Mazzarro and Kyle Davies. Even in the dark spots of this season, we can still find rays of light. That’s important.

For the night, Kolek walked just one and allowed three hits. He recorded 11 ground ball outs. The lone run he allowed came when Steven Kwan led off the third with a double. He advanced to third on a ground out and came home on another ground ball out.
