Eskimo Brothers Mow Down Bears, 11-3
Encinitas Eskimo Brothers starter Miguel Rodriguez found his groove in his team's 11-3 win over the Traverse City Bears. The first-place Eskimo Brothers have their sights set on making a deep playoff run.

Danny Lucena had a big 3-run home run for the Eskimo Brothers in the bottom of the third inning. With Encinitas leading 4-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 27-year old left-handed pitcher Kevin Gibbons and punished it. The result was his 19th home run of the season, which put the Eskimo Brothers on top, 7-1.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Rodriguez.
