SPOKANE, Wash. -
On the night, Gardner finished 4-for-5 with eight RBI. The eight RBI are one shy of both the Spokane and NWL record. It wasn't the only record setting performance. Tonight marks the first time Spokane has scored 18 runs in a game since June 24, 2009 against Everett. Their 20 hits are the most by an Indians team in over a decade.
And, lest we forget, there was a standout pitching performance, too.
