Eric Campbell homered and singled twice and drove in four runs as the Las Vegas Aviators drubbed the Oklahoma City Dodgers 10-5 in a Pacific Coast League game Saturday night before 9,795 fans at Las Vegas Ballpark.

The Aviators led 4-3 after 4½ innings, putting the game away with a four-run fifth on Seth Brown’s two-run homer, his 29th, and Campbell’s two-run single.
