Blaze Suffer 2-0 Road Loss
The Inland Empire 66ers, despite a fine performance by Bakersfield pitcher Stan Valentine, grabbed a 2-0 win at San Manuel Stadium. Valentine allowed 1 run over 7 innings. The loss drops the Blaze to 11-10.

The outcome was still in doubt in the top of the ninth inning. With runners on 1st and 2nd and Bakersfield trailing 2-0, Kevin Jenkins needed to get a big out. On a 1-2 curveball, Jake Schneider, who is tied for 4th in the CAL in hits with 27, flied out, putting the kibosh on a potential rally.
