Loss Tarnishes Fine Effort by Kaiser
Round Rock center fielder Jason Kaiser pounded Tacoma Rainiers pitchers at Cheney Stadium, but it was not enough to keep the Express from falling, 9-7. Kaiser hit 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The save was credited to Jesus Arias, his 16th. Tacoma, at 50-59, holds down third place in the Pacific Conference North Division.

Had Trevor Nicolia not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Nicolia hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Rainiers.

"There's still time to turn this season around," said Nicolia.
