Steelheads Topple Caracals, 13-4, as Walton Shines
Nick Walton was a major factor in the 13-4 Vacaville win over Calgary. The Steelheads first baseman was 4-4 with 4 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Picking up the win was Ricardo Mercado. He went 7.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 8 hits. The right--hander struck out 4 and walked 2. Vacaville improves to 47-36 with the win. They lead their division by 2½ games.

With Vacaville leading 5-4 in the top of the fifth, Walton hit a 2-run single off Calgary hurler Ryan Ferraioli. It was the 44th hit of the season for Walton and put his team ahead, 7-4.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Walton said. "We did a good job of that today."
