Stack, Storm Too Much for Comets
The Lake Elsinore Storm defeated the Kalamazoo Comets, 13-5. Doing his part was center fielder Jody Stack, who went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. The Comets, at 22-71, have lost 7 in a row.

The Storm got a big hit from pinch hitter Victor Polanco. Facing Kalamazoo pitcher Jim Unknown in the bottom of the eighth, Polanco pounded a 3-run home run to right. His 1st home run of the season put the Storm ahead, 13-3.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Stack told the Lake Elsinore Observer.
