[LoneStarPhan]

Should have been a shutdown 1-2-3 inning for Soto. Soto comes back to strike out the next hitter. Not rattled by the extra batter to face after the error. A solid outing from Soto.

Can't say enough about the job Walker did today. Hit hard in the first, and still shaky in the second, he goes on to put up five scoreless innings with only one additional hit to save the bullpen.
