Rancho Cucamonga Quakes News Release
San Bernardino, CA - One night after being embarrassed in San Bernardino, Rancho Cucamonga played a near-flawless game, as the Quakes shut out the Inland Empire 66ers by a final of 4-0 on Friday night at San Manuel Stadium.
Gavin Stone headlined the act with six scoreless innings, striking out a career-best 12 hitters to earn his first professional win.
Stone (1-2) allowed four hits with his 12 punches and no walks, gaining his first win since being drafted in the 2020 draft.
Luis Diaz (2) hit a two-run homer in the fourth and Jorbit Vivas (12) ripped a solo blast in the fifth to give Stone some support against Inland starter Jose Salvador (5-5).
Elio Serrano and Carlos Alejo combined for three scoreless frames to secure the shutout, with Alejo notching his sixth save, striking out four over 1.1 innings.
Rancho (49-37) and Inland Empire will play a double-header on Saturday beginning at 5:30pm. Rancho is scheduled to throw Robbie Peto (1-3) and Huei-Sheng Lin (1-0) in the twin-bill, while the 66ers will counter with Andrew Peters (0-0) and Coleman Crow (4-1).
The Quakes will return to LoanMart Field on Tuesday, August 17th, as they host the San Jose Giants in a huge six-game series with playoff implications.
