Alexander Pounds 2 Homers in 9-6 Eskimo Brothers Win
The 9-6 Encinitas win over Libertyville was due in large part to Matthew Alexander. The Eskimo Brothers left fielder went 2 for 5 with 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. The win belonged to Chris Anderson in relief. His record improves to 4-0. Estevan Rios took the loss for Libertyville. Picking up the save was Vinny Luna, his 4th.

The game turned with two out in the top of the fourth when Alexander hit a grand slam home run. It thrust the Eskimo Brothers into the lead, 7-3.

"We'll take this win and move on," said Alexander.

The second-place Eskimo Brothers have a record of 58-29.
