Los Angeles Earns 3-2 Win
The Los Angeles Blockbusters did just enough to nip the Denver Burros, 3-2, in 11 innings. Los Angeles pitcher Larry Mitchell, in particular, had a standout performance. The Los Angeles win streak is now 3 games.

Batting in the bottom of the 11th, former first round draft pick Jim Brookins had a real shot to win the game. Denver pitcher Ken Torkelson was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Brookins hit a run-scoring single. The Blockbusters had a walk-off triumph.

"We didn't let this one get away," said Brookins.
