Scorpions Defeat Tigercats, 7-4
The Sonoma Scorpions defeated the Vail Tigercats, 7-4. Right Fielder Humberto Castano deserved a large share of the credit. Castano went 2-5 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Scorpions. Reliever Jonathan Harvey picked up the win. His record improves to 13-5. Robert Hendricks took the loss. Kevin McDonald closed it out for Sonoma, earning his 24th save.

Castano had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a first pitch sinker from Robert Hendricks, he banged a 3-run home run to left, giving the Scorpions a 7-4 lead. It was the 14th home run of the year for Castano.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Castano said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."

The Western AA Central Division-leading Scorpions have a record of 83-40.
