MIDLAND--Joey Lucchesi handcuffed the Rockhounds over six scoreless innings as the Missions clinched the 2nd half division title with a 5-3 win Wednesday night at Security Bank Ballpark.
By winning both halves, the Missions would host game five of the division playoff series next week should it go the distance.
Lucchesi allowed just two singles while striking out eight against two walks. He improved to 5-3 and his 1.79 ERA is the lowest in the Texas League since he made his debut on July 3.
The Missions finished with 14 hits. They've recorded double-digit hit totals in three straight games for the first time in over a month.
