For five innings, the Inland Valley Buccaneers (10-13-2, 6-9) were giving the Palm Springs Power (27-8, 11-3) all they could handle for a second straight night at Palm Springs Stadium.
It was knotted up at 1 heading into the sixth inning when a nightmarish inning occurred as the Power scored 10 runs to cruise to a 12-2 victory.
Breyer Gayle and Matt Majher had one RBI apiece.
Hershel Gardner and Tristan Chamberlain each scored once.
The Bucs will take two days off before playing a huge SCCBL doubleheader against the Pirates on Saturday at 2 p.m. at Cal Poly Pomona.
