The San Diego Captains took Chicago pitcher Jose Mojica's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Union Field. The final score had San Diego getting past the Traders, 5-2. Mojica went 7.2 innings and allowed 2 runs, striking out 5. The Captains lead the National Baseball League Western Division by 6 games.

Ron Byrd came through with a big-time hit for San Diego. The center fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 5-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Byrd.
