Nick, So Sick: Sick being used here in the way that skateboarders in the ’90s might use it, not the typical “under-the-weather” usage. Baker won each of his first four start and with a dazzling 1.88 ERA and a .226 batting average against, he’s instilled fear in opposing hitters this season.
Oh Boy(d): SS Evan Boyd is working on a ten game hitting streak, which he can extend tonight as the POWER look to be the first team to move into double digits in the conference win column.

Bark in the Ballpark: It’s the season’s third Bark in the Ballpark. Bring out your dogs to the stadium if you feel so inclined for yet another dog-themed evening of great baseball.
Open and Shut Case-y: Casey McCarthy’s last start lasted 8 innings, over which time frame he allowed just seven hits, no walks, and a mere two runs. Oh–right, that was against this same So Cal team. Harry Gurley and his staff are looking for more of the same from the CSU, San Bernardino criminal justice major. With a dazzling 1.64 ERA and a .189 batting average against, McCarthy has proven his worth as a key piece of the POWER rotation. Another start, and surely more success for Casey today.
Eight-teen Hundred: I just bolded the product of .300 and 6 because it’s worth pointing out that each of the POWER’s first six hitters is hitting .300+. Gomez (.313), Boyd(.375), Romero(.387), Jones(.400), DeLeon(.324), and Flanagan (.429).

Pitching: RHP 36 Nick Baker
Building momentum: The POWER look to add to their seven-game win streak as Nick Baker looks for win number 3.
Working His Way to the Top: Curtis Gomez only got to start 13 games for the University of the Pacific in the spring, hitting .224, but his coaches will have to put him out there if he keeps playing like he has for the POWER thus far into the season. Hitting .292/.485/.417 with the second most RBIs on the team (8), Gomez has played phenomenally and swung well since arriving in Palm Springs. He’s a humble guy, who will credit the coaches if you ask what’s led to his strong numbers thus far. Gomez earned his start tonight and deserves that spot atop the lineup, if you’ve ever wondered about “work ethic” and whether hard work pays off, look no further than the 5’9″ U. of the Pacific sophomore from Santa Cruz.
