Thursday saw two teams in blowouts and two teams in one-run games, Tulsa won a one-run game in extra-innings and Rancho Cucamonga scored 15 runs in their win. On the other hand, Oklahoma City lost big and Great Lakes lost a tough 1-0 game.
Player of the day
Andrew Sopko made his third start as a Quake and while the game was never in doubt, Sopko pitched as if he didn't have a big lead. Sopko pitched five innings, allowing a run, five hits, two walks and striking out seven.
Triple-A Oklahoma City
The Dodgers saw Zach Lee give up 10 runs to the Storm Chasers (Royals) and that was too big a lead to overcome.
