Rancho Cucamonga Quakes News Release


Rancho Cucamonga, CA - The San Jose Giants took advantage of some erratic Quake pitching on Wednesday night, earning their second straight win over Rancho to open the six-game series, a final of 8-3 at LoanMart Field.

The Giants erupted in the ninth for five runs, snapping a 3-3 tie, as they took advantage of three walks in the ninth and a total of nine issued by Rancho pitching throughout the night.

Ryan Brown (1-1) got out of a inherited jam in the eighth, struggled with his command in the ninth and was charged with four of the five in the inning. He was removed after a bases-loaded walk to Jose Ramos, which put the Giants ahead to stay at 4-3.

Cody More entered and immediately surrendered a two-run double to Jean Carlos Sio and a two-run single to Carlos Gutierrez, as the Giants took a commanding 8-3 lead.

The Quakes trailed 2-0 after five innings, as San Jose starter Niko Mazza was nearly unhittable.

In the sixth though, Samuel Munoz ripped a two-run triple off eventual winner Charlie McDaniel (5-2), tying the game at 2-2.

Elijah Hainline put the Quakes ahead for the first time in the series in the seventh, as his RBI single chased home Mairo Martinus, making it 3-2.

The Giants tied it in the eighth and the five-run ninth sent the Quakes to their third straight loss overall.

Rancho (33-20) will look to avoid a season-high fourth straight loss on Thursday, as they'll send Logan Tabeling (3-1) to the hill against Jacob Bresnahan (0-2) at 6:30pm.

Thursday night will be a Thirsty Thursday, with drink specials throughout the evenings, thanks to Tam's Burgers! Tickets are available at rcquakes.com. Go Quakes!
