Los Angeles Drops Another One, 8-4
The San Diego Captains withstood an impressive performance by Los Angeles left fielder Ernie Ronnebaum to defeat the Blockbusters, 8-4, at Blockbuster Stadium. Ronnebaum was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. San Diego, at 90-67, is 2 games up in the National Baseball League Western Division.

San Diego used a well-timed hit by Ron Roe to capture the win. The center fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Captains ahead, 5-1. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"I still think this team can play even better," Roe told the San Diego Times.
