Bruins Dispose of Heat, 14-1
Getting an impressive start from Randy Lupton, Westwood beat Palm Springs by the score of 14-1. Picking up his 1st save was 31-year old right-handed pitcher Mike Weatherby. The Bruins, with only their 4th win in 19 games, have not had much to write home about in 2026.

Jeff Ciervo, who is tied for 4th in the StC in home runs with 4, contributed to the Westwood win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 6 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 3 RBI.

"Randy had good stuff. When he did get into a compromising count, he made the most of it," said Westwood manager Hasan Raif.
