Lancaster JetHawks News Release
LAKE ELSINORE, Calif. - Bryan Radziewski pitched seven scoreless innings for the JetHawks and struck out a career-high nine batters in a 4-0 shutout victory over the Lake Elsinore Storm on Thursday night at The Diamond.
Radziewski (4-6) held the Storm (45-78) to five hits over his seven innings and did not walk a batter. The left-hander received the win after Andrew Walter pitched two perfect innings in relief, completing Lancaster's fourth straight win and 10th shutout of the season.
James Ramsay gave the JetHawks (64-59) an early lead with a home run off Brad Wieck (1-6) to lead off the game. The homer was Ramsay's second in as many at-bats, as the outfielder ended Wednesday's game with a walk-off home run in the ninth inning against Inland Empire.
Wieck took the loss for Lake Elsinore, despite giving up just two runs on eight hits over 6.1 innings of work.lo
Lancaster added onto its lead in the seventh inning, when Jamie Ritchie led off with a double and scored on a RBI-double by Mott Hyde, who went 3-for-3 with a walk. Ronnie Mitchell added a two-run single in the eighth off Ryan Butler, giving Mitchell a league-leading 47 RBI in the second half.
Derek Fisher stole two bases for the JetHawks in the contest for a team-leading total of 20 on the season.
The Storm's biggest scoring threat of the game came in the first inning, as Marcus Davis and Nick Torres singled with two out, and Ryan Miller reached on a fielding error to load the bases. A flyout ended the inning, however, and Lake Elsinore went 0-for-4 in the game with runners in scoring position.
The series continues on Friday with first pitch scheduled for 7 p.m. Keegan Yuhl (4-0, 1.41) will pitch for the JetHawks opposite Lake Elsinore's Travis Radke (0-2, 10.50).
