Martinez Blasts Desperados, Super Troopers Take Game 2, 5-4
Behind a bravura effort from right fielder Jose Martinez, the Santa Barbara Super Troopers topped the Medford Desperados by the score of 5-4 and got their first win in the 2025 World Series. Martinez went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times for the Super Troopers. The win moves Santa Barbara into a 1-1 tie with Medford.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Matt Shea came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Medford pitcher Jesus Ochoa, he hit a 2-2 cutter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Santa Barbara on top, 5-4.

"I like seeing our guys get a return on what they've put in," said Santa Barbara manager Jimmy Jacobs.

Game 3 is scheduled for Saturday at Ballpark of Medford in Medford.
