(Trenton)- Freddy Sanchez set a franchise record with four doubles and Luis Garcia added two homers and five RBI in a 13-0 Thunder rout of New Haven on Tuesday.

Sanchez collected doubles in the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Innings with 3 RBI and 2 runs scored. The four doubles breaks the record that had been done four times prior, last by Tony DeRosso on September 4, 2000.

Garcia hit his first homer to lead off the 2nd Inning and give Trenton a 3-0 lead. Mark Fischer followed with a homer to go back-to-back for a 4-0 lead. Garcia`s second homer was a Grand Slam that capped a seven-run 4th Inning that gave the Thunder (57-57) a 12-0 lead.

The two homers and five RBI both tied season-highs for a Thunder player.

Not to be outdone, starter Derrin Ebert (7-5) pitched eight shutout innings to get the win. He allowed two singles, two walks and struck out nine.

Trenton and New Haven meet again on Wednesday at 7:05 PM. Andy Hazlett (6-1) goes for the Thunder against the Ravens` Nick Stocks (1-8).
