It was his first homer of the season and it gave the Generals a 1-0 lead. Victoria added a pair of unearned runs in the frame to extend to a 3-0 advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Victoria continued to pad its lead in the fifth as third baseman Beck Zimmerman hit a two-run single to center field with two outs. San Antonio scored its first run of the ballgame in the home half of the fifth to cut into Victoria\u2019s lead at 5-1.<\/p>\n<p>With two outs in the sixth, Lyczkowski struck again with a two-run homer to left field. He ended the game 3-for-4 with three RBIs and three runs scored. San Antonio responded with a run in each of the seventh and eighth innings, but could get no closer down the stretch as Victoria closed out the game with a win.<\/p>\n<p>The Victoria offense produced nine hits and was aided by five San Antonio errors. Generals reliever Enrique Meza earned the win. He gave up one hit and no runs in a one-inning appearance. Starter Kamar Dove suffered the loss for the River Monsters. The hurler went 4.2 innings and allowed four earned runs on four hits.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Generals now turn their attention to the postseason.
