Rancho Cucamonga Charts 3-1 Win Over Bakersfield
The Rancho Cucamonga Quakes took Bakersfield pitcher Stan Valentine's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Historic Sam Lynn Ballpark. The final score had Rancho Cucamonga getting past the Blaze, 3-1. Valentine went 7 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 4. The win went to Mike McLean in relief, making him now 4-1. Brad Bane took the loss for Bakersfield. The 4th-place Quakes have won 4 consecutive games.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jorge Rivera? The 22-year old catcher Rivera stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put Rancho Cucamonga up, 3-1. For the game, he was 2 for 3, including 1 double and 1 single.

Rivera called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
