Ft. Wayne Hands Jacksonville 10-7 Defeat
The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes had to overcome a big game from Jacksonville right fielder Chris Baker to leave Nationals Park with a victory. And they did, winning, 10-7. Baker was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Hugo Reyes picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 3-0. Antonio Rondon was tagged with the loss. The Earthquakes boast a remarkable 83-18 record.

Ft. Wayne used a clutch at-bat from Jose Saenz to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the second inning to put the Earthquakes ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Every win gets us closer to our ultimate goal," said Saenz.
