Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Twin Cities Northmen and Los Angeles Pobladores.

Getting an impressive start from Gerald Gross, Twin Cities beat Los Angeles by the score of 3-2. Twin Cities currently is in 6th place in the American Baseball League Western Division at 65-84.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jim Thorman in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 28-year old right-handed pitcher Larry Seger to win the game for Twin Cities. The home crowd went nuts.

"This game was intense," Thorman said, postgame.
