Jose Gonzalez
The Pitching Staff of Frisco threw their 7th shutout of the season – which is in fourth place in the Texas League.
The Frisco Roughriders took a crucial 2-0 win over the Arkansas Travelers (Mariners) on Sunday 10 August 2025 in Dickey-Stephens Park.
The victory helped Frisco to close the Strong series, with newly promoted RHP Jose Gonzalez who seemed to be in his Double-A debut.

Before the promotion of High-a Hub City, Gonzalez had a solid season, with a 4-7 with a 2.83 ERA in 86 innings. He issued 18 walks, threw 90, held opponents to a .244 average and placed a 1.14 Whip.
Gonzalez’s Double-A debut performance
The double-a-moment of Gonzalez was not too big for him. He threw 5 innings, allowing 0 points on 3 hits, with 1 Walk, 1 HBP and 3 Strikeouts, with 9 swing-and-misses generated on 71 throws (48 strikes, 68%). He also had a pickoff at first base. It was a nice debut.

Classification and upcoming series
The Roughriders are now 16-23 in the second half, 8 games behind Amarillo Sod Poodles. They have a lot of ground to make up for it.
This series of victory was their first series victory in the second half.
