The Los Angeles Blockbusters overcame a good performance by Denver right fielder Doug Davis to knock off Denver, 6-5, at Blockbuster Stadium. Davis went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Denver is now 2-4.

Jim Horrigan, who led the NBL in batting average with .378 in 1960, chipped in a run-scoring single for Los Angeles in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 RBI.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Horrigan told the Los Angeles Daily.
