SAN RAFAEL, Calif. - The San Rafael Pacifics might be updating their collective LinkedIn profile to include "clutch hitting" under "skills and expertise."

Two nights after the first walk-off home run in franchise history, Pacifics short-stop Danny Gonzalez - batting with two-outs, two-strikes and the bases loaded in the seventh - laced a three-run double into the right-field corner. The bolt energized the robust crowd, erased a five-run deficit, and gave San Rafael its first lead of the night, en route to an 8-5 win over the Vallejo Admirals at Albert Park on Friday night.

The Pacifics extended their win streak to seven games, it was their fourth consecutive victory at home - two of which have been of the come-from-behind variety.

"It just shows how strong our team is offensively," Gonzalez said. "We're the kind of team that's not going to give up. We always want to go nine innings, and we've had that mind set since spring training."

San Rafael (10-3) used another two-out hit, and RBI single by Kyle Dhanani, to crack the Admirals armor. Gonzalez followed with the first of his first of his four RBIs. Price Kendall's fifth-inning double scored Zack Pace, cutting the deficit to 5-3. It was Price's team-leading 19th RBI.

Bank of Marin CEO and president, Russ Columbo, got the start for the Pacifics, and yielded a single to Vallejo leadoff hitter Lito Roman - the only hitter he faced as part of a one-day contract. The Pacifics side-slinging right-hander, Logan Odom, came on and retired the next three Admirals, and faced the minimum through three.

The two teams play Saturday, first pitch is scheduled for 5:05 p.m. Tickets and information are available at www.pacificsbaseball.com.
