Blockbusters Drop Knickerbockers, 3-2
In a low-scoring contest between the Los Angeles Blockbusters and the New York Knickerbockers, Larry Mitchell, who is tied for 8th in the NBL in innings pitched with 158.2, proved to be the difference. The Los Angeles right-hander earned props for his performance in the 3-2 Blockbusters win. Earning the save was Jon Hampton. He's now cashed in 1 of 1 save opportunities. The loss makes New York 47-46.

Pedro Villamil drove in one run for Los Angeles. The former first round draft pick had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Dave Torre. It was his 27th RBI of the season.

When asked about his performance, Villamil said, "It probably won't silence the critics."
