Rancho Cucamonga Quakes News Release


Visalia, CA - A five-run third put the Quakes on the board and in the driver's seat on Wednesday, as they rolled to a 9-3 victory over Visalia, their second straight win to open their current 12-game road trip.

Jorbit Vivas blasted his second grand slam of the season as part of the five-run rally, helping the Quakes maintain control in the South Division, as they continue to lead Inland Empire by just a full game in the standings.

Aldrich de Jongh tied the game with an RBI double, as he chased home Sauryn Lao to make it a 1-1 game. With the bases jammed, Vivas delivered his tenth home run of the year to give the Quakes the lead for good against Visalia starter Austin Pope (0-10). Vivas now leads the league with 54 RBIs on the year.

Sam McWilliams added a two-run triple in the fourth, as Marco Hernandez and de Jongh scored to make it 7-1.

Visalia's bats were kept quiet for the majority of the night, as starter Robbie Peto allowed just one run on four hits over four innings in the no-decision. Julian Smith (4-5) was credited with the win after tossing a scoreless fifth.

Aldry Acosta earned the final four outs and his third save of the year, after getting out of a bit of an eight-inning jam before working a scoreless ninth.

The Quakes (36-31) will look for a third straight victory to open their road trip, sending Jimmy Lewis (0-2) to the mound on Thursday. Visalia will go with Junior Mieses (2-4), with first pitch slated for 6:00pm.

After a 12-game road trip, the Quakes return to LoanMart Field on Tuesday, August 3rd, taking on the Lake Elsinore Storm. Tuesday the 4th will be a Temblores Tuesday, presented by the Art Laboe Show Live. Tickets are available at rcquakes.com.
