Vigil Lifts Storm to 11-8 Triumph
In a high-scoring contest between Lake Elsinore and Kalamazoo, right fielder Tim Vigil was a difference-maker. Vigil distinguished himself in the 11-8 Lake Elsinore win. He went 2 for 3 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 4 times. The winner in relief was Jim Unknown. He is now 1-0. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2.1 innings. The victory makes Lake Elsinore 4-6.

A critical at-bat came in the top of the eighth inning when the Storm sent 22-year-old shortstop Ray Hofer to the plate with the bases loaded. The youngster shook off the pressure and hit a 2-run single, to put Lake Elsinore on top, 11-8.

Afterward, Kalamazoo manager Sam Furfari said: "Every team has a bad week."
