Los Angeles starter Syed Farooqi put a stranglehold on the Denver offense. The right-hander had complete command of his changeup in leading the Blockbusters to a 2-0 win. The win for the Blockbusters raised their record to 61-61.

It was an impressive outing from the soft-spoken Farooqi, who tallied 4 strikeouts in 8.1 innings and allowed only 2 hits. Farooqi, who is tied for 6th in the NBL with a 19 quality starts, raised his record to 11-9 on the year with 121 strikeouts.

"There was no wiggle room in this one," said Farooqi.
