Modesto, CA. - Four two-out RBI and six shutout innings gave the Modesto Nuts a 4-3 win against the San Jose Giants on Tuesday night at John Thurman Field.

In the third inning, Logan Taylor recorded his second hit of the game before Zammarelli drilled a two-out double. Anthony Jimenez followed and drove Zammarelli in with a RBI single. Zammarelli went 2-for-4 with three two-out RBI.
