Lumberjacks sweep Reno Astros

The Lumberjacks traveled to Reno this weekend for a double-header with the 10-time world champion Reno Astros and came out with a sweep, winning 11-3 and 14-12.  Mike Hoefs put on a show with 2 home runs and 8 RBI's in game 1 (one later measured at 433 feet on to the freeway), and another home run and 5 RBI's in game 2.  Rob Ellis was fantastic on the mound, earning the CG victory in game 1 and coming back for the save in game 2.  Mike McIntyre had a great day with a long home run as well.  Our summer season comes to a fun close on Sept 29th with a double-header vs the inmates at San Quentin Prison.
