Quakes rally to beat 66ers, 4-3 in 10
A couple of notes from the Quakes' rally over the Sixers Friday night.
The win went to Miller High School product left-hander Robert Fish, back with another go-around with the Quakes. Fish, in his 2010 debut, pitched two impressive perfect innings in relief, striking out two.
Prior to the game, Sixers slugger Kyle Russell said he had faced Angels rehabbing big-leaguer Scott Kazmir before, when both Russell and Kazmir were in high school in Texas. Russell was a freshman and Kazmir was a senior.
So, what happened in that matchup?
"I think he struck me out on two pitches," Russell joked.
Russell had a little bit better success Friday night against Kazmir, singling to center in the second before striking out in the fourth and flying out to deep right-center in the sixth.
