Blockbusters Clip Traders in Tight Contest, 3-0
Los Angeles Blockbusters pitcher Larry Mitchell was in fine form, leading his team past the Chicago Traders, 3-0. Billy Duprey picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Vern Hensley suffered the loss. Los Angeles is 35-41 and Chicago, with the loss, 34-42.

Los Angeles got a clutch hit from Paul Popeck. The second baseman launched a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"I liked his command," said Los Angeles manager John Trausch. "Larry was throwing strikes."
