Aviators Topple Rainiers, 9-5, as Foster Shines
Cheney Stadium was the site for Pacific Conference action featuring the Tacoma Rainiers and Las Vegas Aviators.

In the 9-5 Las Vegas win over Tacoma, the impact of Ken Foster was substantial. Foster, who is tied for 5th in the PC in home runs with 16, was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 doubles, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Las Vegas has rattled off 4 straight wins.

Las Vegas took a 9-5 lead on Foster's 9th double of the season. The 2-run double, which he hit off Christian Roa in the top of the eighth, propelled Las Vegas to the win.

"The boys came out and just played their butts off," said Las Vegas manager Casey Kopitzke.
