Or maybe the headline will read: Rox walk away with victory.

Pebble Report ALERT: I'm off to work and won't be able to issue a full report until later today, but 1) Chris Nelson came back in game two of Asheville's double header and had two hits in five at bats, and 2) on the same night Ian Stewart showed he might be busting loose with a three hit (a homerun and double inclusive) and one walk night for Modesto. What a happy night this was!
