Captains Rebuff Blockbusters, 4-3
San Diego beat Los Angeles on the strength of starting pitcher Dave Fields's fine effort. The left-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. The defeat makes Los Angeles 19-21.

San Diego took a 4-2 lead on Ernie Wilkins's 5th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Wilkins hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Los Angeles pitcher Wayne Guilmette visibly frustrated.

Wilkins called the win a testament to his team's "tenacity."
