Third baseman Luke Mann had a big night at the plate to help Stockton put 13 runs on the board and snap its three-game losing streak on Thursday. Last year’s 14th-round draft pick for the A’s collected 5 hits, including a pair of home runs and a pair of doubles, while driving in 6 runs for the Ports, and he now leads the squad with 38 hits, 21 runs and 6 home runs in 31 games for Stockton. Right fielder Nelson Beltran singled, walked, homered and drove in 2 runs, while second baseman Casey Yamauchi singled twice, doubled and drove in a pair for the Ports. RHP Chen Zhong-Ao Zhuang turned in an outstanding start, throwing 5 scoreless frames to earn his 2nd win, while RHP Jefferson Jean allowed 1 unearned run through 3 innings to secure his 1st save for Stockton.
