Pobladores Walk It Off for 57th Win of Season
Los Angeles pitcher Rick Beasley did his part in helping his team defeat the Houston Drillers, 3-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. The win was credited to 26-year old right-handed pitcher Rick Golia in relief. His record improves to 2-2. Tom McAteer took the loss. Los Angeles occupies third place in the American Baseball League Western Division at 57-49.

Mario Abreu was the walk-off hero for Los Angeles. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Pobladores right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Rick gets tougher when he has to, makes a big pitch when he has to," said Los Angeles skipper Alex Wobbema.
