Captains Win at Home, 7-4
The San Diego Captains defeated the Chicago Traders, 7-4, in part because of first baseman Ramon Montoya. Montoya went 1-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Captains. Bill John was the winner. He's now 1-2. The loser was 1969 Rookie of the Year Award winner Larry Cox. San Diego is now 63-68, Chicago 68-63.

Jorge Escobeda drew 1 walk for San Diego. The 24-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring walk off Larry Cox. It was his 23rd walk of the season.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Escobeda.
