Blaze Tag Giants with 4-2 Loss
The Bakersfield Blaze racked up a win at San Jose Municipal Stadium, bumping off the San Jose Giants, 4-2. Ken Bush, who started for Bakersfield, pitched effectively for his team. Bush yielded 2 runs over 7.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 0, and struck out 8. His record improves to 1-0. The victory gives the Blaze a record of 33-22.

Bakersfield won the game in part because of Juan Núñez. The right fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Blaze ahead, 2-0. For the game, Núñez had 1 double and 1 home run in 3 at-bats.

"Throwing strikes was the main thing," Bush said.
