Simon Reid and Dayton Dooney knocked in consecutive runs in the fifth, as the Quakes finally got on the board against Inland Empire starter Walbert Urena (1-3).

Ibarra (5-1) inherited the 2-0 lead and retired all nine batters he faced over three perfect innings.

Ramirez worked around a walk in both the eighth and again in the ninth, leaving the tying run at the plate on both occasions, earning his first save of the year.
