Explorers Win, 4-0, at Los Angeles
St. Louis got a strong outing from Jorge Gonzalez as the Explorers defeated the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 4-0, at Blockbuster Stadium. In 7.1 innings, Gonzalez surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. He allowed no runs. St. Louis is now 74-70, while Los Angeles is 68-76.

St. Louis used a well-timed hit by Tom Guinn to capture the win. The shortstop socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Explorers ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"I put my work in and trusted the process," said Gonzalez.
