Critical Game 5 Goes to Host Black Aces, 5-2
Santa Ana Black Aces designated hitter Kyle Twigg was the difference-maker at Santa Ana Stadium, as he led his club to victory in a pivotal Game 5 of the Division Series. The Black Aces took the 5-2 win over the Medford Desperados to seize a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 series.

Twigg had an important at-bat with a runner on 1st in the bottom of the seventh, when he hit a 2-run home run. The Black Aces went on to win.

"Things broke our way today and that's great," Black Aces manager Elias Quesada said. "It's important, though, to stay focused and not pat yourself on the back too much. We aren't done yet."

Game 6 is scheduled for Thursday at Ballpark of Medford in Medford.
