Second baseman Jorge Velandia had 4 hits and 4 RBI as the Eugene Emeralds
destroyed the struggling Halifax Hurricanes by a score of 16 to 6 at Windy
Stadium.
 
Velandia enjoyed a fine evening at the plate.  He stroked a base-hit in the
2nd inning, doubled bringing in two baserunners in the 5th inning, smashed a
two-run homer (his 2nd of the season) in the 6th inning and slapped a single
in the 8th inning.  Eugene bats were hot in the 2nd inning when they had 4
runs on 6 hits and the 5th inning which saw them plate 4 runs on 5 hits.  The
Eugene offense was great, scoring in 7 of the 9 innings.  
 
The winning pitcher was Todd Wellemeyer(2-0) who allowed 5 runs in 5 innings.
John Van Benschoten(0-2) was tagged with the loss.  He got hit pretty hard,
allowing 13 hits and 5 walks in 4 innings.
