Drake Helps San Francisco Cruise to 12-3 Win
The San Francisco Fire easily defeated the Austin Desperados, 12-3, at San Francisco Grounds, with right fielder Nick Drake a main contributor to the win. He was 4 for 5 with 2 home runs and a triple, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice for San Francisco. The Fire improved to 41-50.

With San Francisco leading 6-1 in the bottom of the fourth, Drake came up to bat against Austin pitcher Ivan Esparza. Drake hit a changeup to left-center for a 3-run home run. His 4th home run of the season put the Fire on top, 9-1.

"When you don't put the pitches where they're supposed to be, they hit you hard," said Austin skipper Adam Ponder.
