With a playoff win on the line, Wasco rose to the challenge on Wednesday. They had just enough and edged out the Golden West Trailblazers 7-6. This was payback for the Tigers, who suffered a 6-1 loss the last time these two teams met.
The team relied heavily on Gerardo Aldana, who went 2-for-4 with one run and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March. Santiago Zarate also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.
The victory made it two in a row for Wasco and bumps their season record up to 17-8. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 7 runs in those games. As for Golden West, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost seven of their last eight matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 11-18 record this season.
Wasco didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next game, a 2-1 victory against Pioneer Valley on the 23rd. Golden West does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
