Wolverines Get Past Ft. Wayne, 5-4
The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Raynaud Giuliani into a win. Instead, the Riverside Wolverines prevailed, 5-4. Giuliani threw 6.1 innings of shutout ball. The winner in relief was Wu-sheng Su. The left-hander allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. Losses have been rare for the Earthquakes, who are now 18-5.

Victor Pena was the walk-off hero for Riverside. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Wolverines center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Ft. Wayne manager Du-sung Moon. "But we decided not to take it."
