May 19, 2006: Salvaging a Series

Looking to avoid a sweep and end a season-long 5-game losing streak, Fleetwood sent out Dave Bush to face Santa Barbara's Tim Hudson.

Both pitchers were sharp early, throwing 3 scoreless innings apiece. In the bottom of the 4th inning, though, Fleetwood drew first blood. A two-run double by David Wright and an RBI single by David DeJesus gave Fleetwood a 3-0 lead.

Santa Barbara soon clawed back to within a run on a Nomar Garciaparra RBI double in the 5th inning and a Carlos Guillen solo homer to lead off the 6th inning.

Little did Santa Barbara know, but Guillen's homer would be its last base runner. Cal Eldred, Scott Downs, Arthur Rhodes and Derrick Turnbow combined to retire 12 consecutive batters and end the game. Final score: Fleetwood 3, Santa Barbara 2.

Fleetwood had salvaged the last game of the series, and ended its 5-game losing streak in the process. The Walkers would now head to Santa Barbara for 4 more games against the Outlaws.
