Gerstein goes 4-for-4 to Fuel Yard Goats Offense
The Hartford Yard Goats topped the Altoona Curve, 10-6, with second baseman Josh Gerstein playing a big role. Gerstein went 4-4 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Yard Goats in the win. Jimmy Beekman was the winner. Over 5 innings, he yielded 5 runs on 8 hits, with 2 walks and 3 strikeouts. The Yard Goats improved their record to 58-45 by beating Altoona.

Alvaro Garcia had a big 3-run home run for the Yard Goats in the top of the first inning. With Hartford leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 23-year old left-handed pitcher Willie Marmol and swatted a home run to left. It was his 9th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Yard Goats ahead, 5-0.

"We're in some kind of groove right now," said Gerstein.
