Pizzuti 3-for-4 in Santa Ana Win
The Santa Ana Black Aces powered past the Aurora Paints, 8-2, at Santa Ana Stadium. Kevin Pizzuti provided some of the pop. Dude was 3 for 4 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. Scott Lewandowski picked up the win, lifting his record to 9-4 on the season. He struck out 6 and walked 0 in 6 innings, while yielding 1 run. Santa Ana is now 53-26. Aurora is 34-45.

With Santa Ana leading 5-2 in the bottom of the eighth, Pizzuti came up to bat against Aurora pitcher Eric White. Pizzuti hit a fastball to right-center for a 3-run home run. His 10th home run of the season put the Black Aces on top, 8-2.

"We'll need a much better effort, the next time out," said losing manager Orlando Salinas.
