The Los Angeles Blockbusters weathered an outstanding game by Kansas City center fielder Bob Anderson to topple the Bulls, 11-8. Anderson went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 doubles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Larry Mitchell, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 5th save. Today's win puts Los Angeles at 17-31, while Kansas City falls to 27-19.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Blockbusters manager John Trausch. "This one was nice to get."
