Cruz Lifts Storm to 5-2 Win
A 5-RBI performance from Alfredo Cruz, who is rated as the 47th best prospect by BNN, helped the Lake Elsinore Storm beat the Weedpatch Widowmakers, 5-2. Danny Acosta, the winner, improved to 1-1. He held Weedpatch to 1 run on 5 hits over 6 innings, while racking up 8 strikeouts. With the win, Lake Elsinore is 22-86.

Lake Elsinore grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Cruz hit a 3-run home run off Antonio Rodriguez. His 5th home run of the season put the Storm out in front, 3-1.

Said losing manager Tony Velez: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."
