Friday night in Lake Elsinore the Storm came back from a 2-0 deficit with an onslaught that ran from the fourth inning through the seventh to notch a 9-5 victory. C Luis Camupsano and SS Eguy Rosario both had three hits and two RBI while CF Aldemar Burgos contributed an inside-the-park two-run homer as the Storm raced to victory.
The Rawhide posted single runs in the second and third innings and starter Shumpei Yoshikawa was cruising along through three innings but a two-run uprising for the Storm in the fourth inning started an onslaught that ended with nine runs and 14 hits.
Over the next four innings the Storm notched all nine of their runs and at the end of the night they had tallied four doubles, a triple and Burgos’ inside-the-park homer. RHP Gabe Mosser (2-0) came on in the fourth inning and went 4 1/3 IP allowing three runs on eight hits and a walk with one K to earn the win. Yoshikawa (3-6) took the loss with 4 2/3 IP where he allowed five runs on nine hits with no walks against three strikeouts.
The Storm evened its record in the second-half standing at 16-16 while Visalia held on to first place in the North despite dropping to 18-14.
