Aztecs Score Decisive 10-1 Win Over Storm
The Mexico City Aztecs pinned a convincing loss on the Lake Elsinore Storm, 10-1, at Dust Devils Ballpark. Armando Gomez was a main factor in the win. He went 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for Mexico City. Justin Rountree snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits over 5.1 innings. He's now 6-1 on the season. Lake Elsinore has now lost 5 consecutive games.

Mexico City used the clutch hitting of Jonathan Lewis to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Aztecs the lead, 1-0. For the game, Lewis had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"We're not exactly playing great right now," said Bobby Vargas, the Lake Elsinore manager.
