Dominant Performance by Mitchell in Los Angeles Win
The Los Angeles Blockbusters picked up a win at Quakers Stadium, knocking off the Philadelphia Quakers, 7-2. Starting pitcher Larry Mitchell played a key role in the triumph. Los Angeles is now 31-35, while Philadelphia is 26-38.

Though he didn't earn the victory, Mitchell kept his team in the game until the bullpen took over and the Los Angeles offense came through. Over 7 innings, he allowed 2 hits and 1 run, while striking out 8.

"A confident pitcher is a dangerous thing," said Los Angeles manager John Trausch. "That's what Larry is right now."
