(Scotiabank Field at Nat Bailey Stadium - Vancouver, B.C.) - A four-run outburst in the top of the 7th inning helped propel the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes (15-11) to a five-game series sweep of the Vancouver Canadians (8-18) on Monday night.

Vancouver starter RHP Clinton Hollon took the loss going 4 2/3 innings allowing three earned runs on seven hits to fall to 1-2 on the season. Volcanoes reliever RHP Luis Pino would manage his first win of the summer going four scoreless innings, striking out three to help Salem-Keizer improve to 13-2 over the past 15 games.

The Salem-Keizer offense was paced by 3B Miguel Gomez who went 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI while C Brad Moss went 2-for-4 with a triple and two runs scored. Vancouver saw newcomer CF Andrew Guillotte go 3-for-5 in the loss with his first professional home run in the 9th inning off of reliever RHP Ryan Halstead that made the final 7-3.
