Rams Victors, 5-2, at Whitby
Behind a fine performance from Luis Ortega, the Borrego Springs Rams knocked off the Whitby Bats, 5-2. Ortega went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs for the Rams. Borrego Springs reliever Edwin Rocio picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Josh Poehlein took the loss. Borrego Springs has a record of 6-1.

Christian Weatherspoon had a big 2-run home run for the Rams in the top of the third inning. With Borrego Springs leading 2-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a sinker from 19-year old right-handed pitcher Josh Poehlein and punished it. The result was his 6th home run of the season, which put the Rams on top, 4-0.

Weatherspoon called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
