Taylor, Earthquakes Too Much for Nationals
Earthquakes third baseman Brian Taylor put his stamp on his team's 8-3 win over the Jacksonville Nationals. Taylor went 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for Ft. Wayne in the contest. Ft. Wayne, at 35-10, is 7 games up in the Southern Conference East Division.

Edgardo Perez had a productive at-bat in the bottom of the third inning. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, the Ft. Wayne center fielder hit a run-scoring single. It made the score 3-2, Earthquakes, and led to the win.

"It was a tough day, no getting around it," said losing manager Zack Glomski.
