Gaston Blasts Blaze, JetHawks Take Game 2, 7-5
When the games really matter, the Lancaster JetHawks put on their best show, beating the Bakersfield Blaze by a final score of 7-5. Charlie Gaston went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The series now sits at 1-1 in the best-of-7 affair.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Gaston hit a changeup from Chad Payling for a 2-run home run. The JetHawks, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"He who laughs last laughs best," Gaston said, postgame.

The next game is set to be played for Saturday, September 20th , 2025 at Historic Sam Lynn Ballpark in Bakersfield.
