Captains Score Late, Clip Blockbusters, 8-7
Los Angeles second baseman Ken Frederick was sensational. He went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. San Diego beat the Blockbusters, 8-7, in 10 innings. Bruce Elsner earned the save for San Diego, his 1st. Los Angeles now is 8-7.

San Diego used the timely hitting of Greg Kaminski to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Captains on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We earned that one," said Kaminski.
