Rancho Cucamonga Quakes News Release
Fresno, CA - The Quakes missed out on a golden opportunity to move within a game of first-place Lake Elsinore, as Rancho saw the Fresno Grizzlies rally for a 7-3 win on Tuesday night at Chukchansi Park in Fresno.
Leading 3-2 in the sixth, Quakes' reliever Carson Hobbs (0-1) got touched for three runs, including a go-ahead homer off the bat of Luis Mendez, as the Grizzlies took the lead for good at 5-3.
Fresno added two more in the seventh, as Christian Ruebeck was unable to keep the Grizzlies off the board.
Rancho, who got two hits, including a home run from Logan Wagner (3), finished with just six hits on the night.
Fresno reliever Welinton Herrera (7-2) got the win in relief, scattering two hits over 2.1 scoreless innings.
The loss for the Quakes (26-30) leaves them two games back of first-place Lake Elsinore (28-28), who lost on Tuesday night at home to Stockton. Rancho will send Alex Makarewich (0-1) to the mound on Wednesday night in his third appearance of the year. Fresno will counter with Bryan Perez (2-2), with game time set for 6:50pm.
