The Lubbock Racers will lose the services of reliever Ken Yates after he sustained a tender shoulder while throwing a pitch in today's game against the San Bernardino Repulse.

His trainer said he is expected to be sidelined for the next 1-2 weeks.
To this point in the season, Yates has put up these figures: 2-3 record, 31 relief appearances with 58 innings, no saves, 30 strikeouts, 48 walks and a 7.29 ERA. He has limited other teams to a .300 batting average.

"Not much I can say," offered Lamb in the SION postgame press conference. "I got a bunch of hits, but it would have been much better to get a win. Can I trade 5 hits for the win?"
D. Lamb singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
Lamb on the season is hitting .243 with 5 home runs. His stats include 39 RBIs and 50 runs scored.
