Quakes Endure First Home Loss

April 18, 2025 - California League (CalL)
Rancho Cucamonga Quakes News Release


Rancho Cucamonga, CA - The Quakes' run of perfection at home ended on Thursday night, as the San Jose Giants earned their first win of the series with a 13-6 victory over Rancho at LoanMart Field.

Giants' first baseman Jakob Christian hit a tie-breaking three-run homer off Aidan Foeller (0-1) in the fifth, and finished the game with a career-high six RBIs, helping the Giants to their first road win of the year and handing Rancho their first home loss in six games.

Trailing 8-2 in the seventh, the Quakes tallied four runs and got right back in the game, as Mike Sirota had a two-run double, then scored on Jose Meza's two-run single, as the Quakes made it an 8-6 game. Rancho left the bases-loaded though and then saw San Jose post five runs in the eighth to put it away against the Rancho bullpen.

San Jose reliever Nikolas Herold (1-0) struck out six batters over two innings to earn the win.

The Quakes (7-5) remain two games up in the South Division, despite the loss. On Friday, Rancho will throw Sean Paul Linan (1-0) against San Jose lefty Greg Farone (0-0) at 6:30pm.

Friday is a Family RV Family Feast Night, with $2 hot dogs, $1 Pepsi products and $1 ice cream sandwiches throughout thenight, thanks to Family RV. Game time is 6:30pm and tickets are available at rcquakes.com. Go Quakes!
