Rainiers Drop Grizzlies, 2-1
Tacoma used a superb performance from starting pitcher Thatcher Hurd to down the Fresno Grizzlies, 2-1. Hurd picked up the win for Tacoma, going 5 innings. He gave up no runs on 3 hits. He now sports a record of 4-1. The Rainiers sit in second place in the Pacific Conference North with a record of 43-38.

Tacoma used the timely hitting of Jerrion Ealy to capture the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Rainiers on top, 2-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"That's baseball," said Fresno manager Andy Tracy. "Sometimes the other team plays better than yours."
