Gheldere Goes Deep Twice in 7-4 Toros Win
The Tucson Toros dumped the Houston Aquas, 7-4, in large part due to third baseman Martyn Gheldere. On the day, Gheldere belted 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice for the Toros. Edwin Castaneda earned his 7th save, after closing out the game. With the win, Tucson has a record of 47-63. Houston falls to 67-43.

The game turned with no one out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Gheldere hit a 3-run home run off Ricky Zika. It propelled the Toros into the lead, 3-0.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Gheldere told the Tucson Times.
