"What can you say? We didn't hit well," said the BobCats skipper in his postgame comments.
"Hopefully we shake this off and bounce back tomorrow."
Rivera finished the game with 5 strikeouts and 1 walk in an excellent mound performance.
"He pitched real well," his manager said. "José made pitches when he had to. He hit his spots and did a great job of mixing in his changeup and using his fastball effectively."
