Hops Win at Casper, 10-3
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Yakima Hops stopped the Casper Ghosts, 10-3, at The Graveyard. The Hops got a big game from César Nieves, who was 3 for 5 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Yakima is second in the Premier AA with a record of 45-30.

In the top of the seventh inning, catcher Timothy Jones came through big-time for the Hops. With Yakima leading 6-3, he belted a grand slam home run.

"You win some, you lose some. I don't get too caught up in all that," said Nieves.
