Rainiers Stymie Puerto Rico, Take 4-1 Win
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Seattle fans at Rainiers Stadium.

Seattle Rainiers starter Mike Nixon hurled his team past the Puerto Rico Hurricanes, 4-1. Nixon went 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 1, and struck out 10. His record improves to 3-0.

Nixon contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Seattle in the bottom of the fifth. With his team trailing 1-0, Nixon took a fastball from Eduard Jatzkov and stroked the double to left-center. His 1st double of the season allowed the Rainiers to leap in front, 2-1.

Nixon told a Seattle Herald reporter that he was "more than satisfied" with the win.

Seattle, now 10-3, is playing great baseball to start the year.
