San Bernardino, CA - Rancho got more great pitching on Wednesday night, winning their fourth straight game with a 5-2 victory over the Inland Empire 66ers at San Manuel Stadium.

Peter Heubeck and Christian Romero (1-0) combined for eight scoreless innings, while allowing just two hits, before the 66ers grabbed a pair of unearned runs off Kelvin Ramirez to spoil the would-be shutout.

Rancho's Nick Biddison cracked his first homer of the year off 66ers' starter Jake Madden (0-2), fueling a three-run second, as the Quakes took a 3-0 lead.

They added a run in the fourth and another in the ninth to take a commanding 5-0 advantage.

The 66ers made it interesting in the ninth, coupling a pair of hits with two Rancho errors. Ramirez got the final two outs to keep the tying run on deck though, helping Rancho improve to 4-1 in five head-to-head games against the 66ers.

The Quakes (11-6) will send Jerming Rosario (0-1) to the hill on Thursday, while Inland will counter with Mason Albright (0-2) at 6:35pm.

The Quakes will be on the road until Tuesday, May 9th, when they'll return to LoanMart Field for a six-game set against the Stockton Ports with a special Education 11am Day Game to kick off the series. Tickets are available at rcquakes.com. Go Quakes!
