Blockbusters Squeeze By Chicago, 3-2
The Los Angeles Blockbusters took Chicago pitcher Jose Mojica's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Union Field. The final score had Los Angeles getting past the Traders, 3-2. Mojica went 7 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 2. The defeat makes the Traders 6-11.

Harvey Katzen came through with a big-time hit for Los Angeles. The first baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Katzen attributed the win to "concerted effort and focus."
