Eagles Upend Blockbusters, 5-1
|
The Washington Eagles topped the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 5-1, in National Baseball League action at Blockbuster Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Washington pitcher and Chicago, Illinois, native Bill Blevins. Washington is now 59-75. Los Angeles is 67-66.
Washington used a well-timed hit by Jerry Duersch to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Eagles ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.
Duersch called winning a team effort. "It's not the same guy every time," he said. "It's the sum of the parts."
