Earthquakes Send San Antonio Home with 8-6 Loss
The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes just keep winning.

The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes picked up a win at Griffins Field, knocking off the San Antonio Griffins, 8-6. Starting pitcher Willie Escalera played a key role in the triumph. Ft. Wayne is now 68-16, 6 games up in the Southern Conference East Division.

Ft. Wayne used a clutch hit from Curt Koerner to get the win. The catcher drilled a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Earthquakes ahead, 7-6. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"This team's hitting on all cylinders," said Earthquakes manager Du-sung Moon.
