Modesto, CA – The Quakes dropped their second straight game in Modesto, falling to the Nuts on Thursday night by a final of 9-3.

Rancho had a tough go of it, leaving 11 men on base, committing three errors, walking three and throwing three wild pitches, to go along with just three runs scored for a third straight game.

Leading 3-2 in the fourth after a Jose Ramos two-run double, Rancho let the lead slip away for good, as Modesto tallied three runs against Kendall Williams, taking a 5-3 lead.

It was all Modesto from there on out, as they chased Williams in the fourth and got two off Braydon Fisher and two more against Carlos De Los Santos to take a commanding 9-3 lead.

Ramos and Alex DeJesus each had two hits for the Rancho offense, which mustered ten hits on the night.

Modesto starter Connor Phillips (5-3) was credited with the win, as he allowed three runs on eight hits over five innings.

Wiliams (3-2) allowed five runs and was charged with the loss, but due to three errors, only one was earned.

Rancho (42-34) will attempt to put it together on Thursday, sending Carlos Duran (2-2) to the mound against Modesto’s Kelvin Nunez (4-2) in game four of the series at 7:05pm.
