Bulldogs Bang Out 10-9 Win Versus Idaho
Runs were plentiful at Meta Park at the Dog House.

The California Bulldogs had to overcome a big game from Idaho right fielder Ricardo Cobos to leave Meta Park at the Dog House with a victory. And they did, winning, 10-9. Cobos was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. Joe Hixson, the winner, improved to 10-9. He held the Steelheads to 2 runs on 5 hits over 6 innings, while striking out 2 and walking 1. George Batchelor earned his 26th save in 32 chances.

Scott Cervantes, who leads the FL in doubles with 46, chipped in a 2-run home run for California in the bottom of the third. For the game, the shortstop had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

"What a game," said Cervantes. "We needed every last run."

The Bulldogs bumped their record to 68-58 with this latest triumph.
