Vasquez starting pitcher Dylan Lohman launched a 2 run homer in the top of the first to give his Mustangs a quick lead in this outing that turned into a neck and neck horserace against the Mustangs of Mojave. Mojave pitcher Steele Gainey and Lohman jockeyed for position throughout the game as the lead changed 7 times. Mojave scored 4 runs on 8 hits vs Vasuez's 5 runs on 6 including Nick Crannells third hit of the game, a "see you later" long stride over the right field fence to take the lead in the top of the 8th. Lohman went the distance on the mound striking out 8 including 2 in the bottom of the 8th to finish the day.
