Whitby Downed, 8-5, by Rams
The timely hitting of Ivan Hernandez helped the Borrego Springs Rams down the Whitby Bats, 8-5. Hernandez went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Rams. Isaiah Timmons earned the save for Borrego Springs, his 1st of the year. The win puts Borrego Springs at 70-37 this season.

The result might have been different, had it not been for 19-year old third baseman Jason Hodge. Hodge had a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Rams ahead, 6-5. For the game, Hodge had 1 double and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Hodge.
