DeWitt, Captains Take Dramatic Game 3 for 2-1 Series Lead
The San Diego Captains nearly wasted a strong game from starter Jack DeWitt, but were saved by some timely hitting in a 11th inning walk-off win over the St. Louis Explorers today.

DeWitt pitched well in the 5-4 win at San Diego Sporting Complex. He threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The win allowed San Diego to seize a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 Divisional Round.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 11th inning, when San Diego right fielder Bob Anderson, facing Dick Lott, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Captains the 5-4 win.

"This joint was rocking," said Anderson.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at San Diego Sporting Complex in San Diego.
