The Class A Advanced Lake Elsinore Storm (props to Marty, who is a fan of the Storm logo-- a pair of eyes) and Lancaster JetHawks got together this past weekend. Here's a quick rundown:
GAME 1 -- Lake Elsinore 30, Lancaster 0. Two guys have six-hit games. Another goes 5-5 with two home runs. If you listen closely on a still night in California, you can still hear the JetHawks bullpen crying.
GAME 2 -- Lake Elsinore 12, Lancaster 14. If not for a JetHawks player making California League history for hitting four home runs in one game, this one would have been another ugly Storm win. In fact, the JetHawks were down, 9-0, at one point.
GAME 3 -- Lake Elsinore 21, Lancaster 6. Well, there goes the JetHawks "momentum." A Storm player hit for the cycle and racked up eight RBIs. That's a new career-high for him, which he had just set two days earlier with seven RBIs in the opening game of the series.

Like the subhead reads: 83 runs and 23 home runs on 95 hits combined. The Storm had an inning with 12 runs scored. That's enough said.
And you were watching the Preakness Stakes this weekend, weren't you?

Much better than the Toledo Storm logo
