Joe Inglett went 5-for-6 with a home run and six RBIs Saturday to lead the 51s' 19-hit attack in their 14-5 Pacific Coast League win over the Fresno Grizzlies in Fresno, Calif.
Inglett's two-run double capped the scoring in Las Vegas' six-run first inning, which included two-run homers by Kevin Howard and Brett Harper. Harper later had an RBI single and a sacrifice fly as the 51s (37-46) went up 9-0.
Brian Burres (6-6) got the win, working seven innings and giving up four runs on six hits and two walks. He struck out five.
Four of the Grizzlies' runs, and five of the six hits they mustered off Burres, came in the fourth inning. Joe Borchard, Matt Downs and Eugenio Velez had RBI hits for Fresno (42-40).
Inglett's three-run blast in the fifth was his first homer of the season. Randy Ruiz hit his team-leading 16th in the fourth.
