Earthquakes Stadium featured a tense pitchers' duel.

Ft. Wayne got a game-changing hit from Ruben Gutierrez. The right fielder blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a winner.

"It's great to see the crowd jacked up," Gutierrez said.
