Ems Take Series
The Eugene Emeralds rolled past the Everett AquaSox 7-2, locking in their sixth straight series win. With just 30 games left in the regular season, the Ems hold an 8-game lead and sit 27-9 in the second half. A five-run first inning set the tone, highlighted by RBI hits from Charlie Szykowny, Zane Zielinski, and Zander Darby. Szykowny later added a solo homer—his 15th of the season. Starter Greg Farone threw six strong innings, giving up just one run and striking out six, extending his dominance on the mound.
