Visalia, CA – The Rawhide jumped to an early lead and held on to defeat the Quakes in Saturday night action from Valley Strong Ballpark, a final of 5-1.
A Jose Izarra solo homer was the only highlight for Rancho Cucamonga, as the Quakes were held to just four hits on the night, as they dropped their third game of the series.
Rancho starter Gabe Emmett (6-7) gave the Quakes five innings of work, but started a bit shaky, as Visalia tallied four in the first to grab the lead for good.
Izarra’s fifth homer of the year came off Visalia starter Landon Sims, making it 4-1 in the third.
Rancho would get no closer, as the Visalia bullpen combined for six innings of scoreless work.
Visalia reliever Luis Tejada (4-4) fired three scoreless innings for the win.
