Crawdads Hammered by Gomez, Drop Game 4 to Bruins
On the verge of being swept and facing a red-hot Hickory Crawdads team, the Westwood Bruins had a tough assignment. Armando Gomez delivered.

The Bruins left fielder was unstoppable for the visitors, as he went 4-5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4 in guiding his club to its first victory of the series, 9-3. Gomez, 24, earned accolades for his efforts. The win means Westwood now trails 3-1 in the best-of-7 series.

Westwood won the game in part because of Paul Tetzloff. The second baseman ripped a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Bruins ahead, 8-0. For the game, Tetzloff had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We're happy," Tetzloff told reporters after the win. "When you're in the playoffs, you've got to treat every game like it could be your last."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Crawdad Park in Hickory.
