Hernandez 5-for-6 Against Bellflowers
Thursday, May 28th , 2026
It was a parade of hits for Alex Hernandez of the Borrego Springs Rams at Club Circle Park.

Connecting almost every time he went to the plate, Hernandez finished the day with a total of 5 hits in 6 at-bats. His strong individual effort propelled the Rams to a win, 10-2.

"Hernandez was really good and we were really bad," groaned Bellflowers manager Andy Perez. "Next time he's that hot, we'll just walk him."

Alex Hernandez singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, flied out in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Ricky Rangel in the 6th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

So far this year, Hernandez has 5 home runs and a .365 batting average.

Tinoco Clips Mounties for Cycle
Thursday, May 28th , 2026
It was a special day for Arturo Tinoco at Eláguila Stadia. Not only did Tinoco's Whitby Bats beat the Moncton Mounties, 9-8, but the center fielder hit for the cycle along the way.

The 19-year-old Tinoco racked up 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple and 1 home run to get his name in the record books. For the game, he went 4-for-6 with 2 RBI and 3 runs scored.

"He hit everything we threw," said Mounties manager Johnny Hoffman. "There was just no getting him out today."

Speaking to the press after the game, Tinoco said his goal for the day had been to look for "first pitch fastballs."

"I got some good looks today," he said.

Arturo Tinoco singled in the 1st, tripled in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Marcos Reyes in the 7th, doubled in the 9th and flied out in the 10th.

So far this season, Tinoco is batting .377 with 5 home runs, 33 RBIs and 37 runs scored. He has 69 hits in 183 at-bats, 29 walks and a .463 OBP. Tinoco has played in 47 games.

Ricky Rangel Hurt, Will Miss Rest of Year
Thursday, May 28th , 2026
The doctors have spoken and Ricky Rangel of the Buffalo Bellflowers didn't like what he heard. The 18-year-old starting pitcher is almost certainly gone for the rest of the year and depending on his progress could miss some of next season as well. Rangel sustained his season-ending injury during the Borrego Springs Rams game yesterday at Club Circle Park. He had to leave the game because he hurt himself while throwing a pitch. Today the Buffalo medical staff reported Rangel had a torn labrum and would be absent from the lineup for at least 8 months.
