Gulls Deal Bakersfield 7-2 Defeat
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Ventura Gulls and Bakersfield Blaze.

The Ventura Gulls picked up a win at Gulls Ballpark, knocking off the Bakersfield Blaze, 7-2. Starting pitcher Dustin Gauthier was a big reason why. Gauthier got the win, improving to 9-9. He gave up 6 hits and walked 0 over 7.1 innings. He allowed 2 runs.

Harry Spender had a big 3-run home run for the Gulls in the bottom of the third inning. With Ventura trailing 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Nick Sarkozi and punished it. The result was his 9th home run of the season, which put the Gulls on top, 3-2.

"Banging out wins is what it's all about," said Spender.

Ventura is in 5th place in the California League South Division with a record of 57-56.
