Down to Defeat Goes Bakersfield, 11-7
The home team gave the crowd at The Hanger something to cheer about.

Al Baker, who is tied for 10th in the CAL with a .511 slugging percentage, led Lancaster to a triumph over Bakersfield. The final score was 11-7. The third baseman went 3 for 5, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 2 runs and added 2 RBI. The save went to Otton van Rey, his 15th this season.

Charlie Gaston took Bakersfield hurler Mike Briddon deep in the bottom of the fourth. His 3-run home run put the JetHawks on top, 5-2. In all, Gaston had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 5.

"I was hoping to make good contact," said Gaston. "I wasn't trying to knock the snot out of it."

Lancaster is looking good at 39-16.
