Fine Effort by Hickey Not Enough in 10-7 Empires Loss
New York center fielder Roger Hickey had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Hickey went 3-3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 3 times and drove in 2, even as Los Angeles beat the Empires, 10-7. Los Angeles, now 50-47, holds down second place in the American Baseball League Western Division.

Joe Roberson hit a bases-clearing triple off Jon Pierce in the top of the eighth, which put the Pobladores in front, 8-7. Roberson had 1 single, in addition to the triple. For the game, he went 2 for 5.

"We got the victory," said Roberson. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
