Blockbusters Win Squeaker, 5-4, Over Captains
The home crowd was treated to a thrilling, walk-off win.

The Los Angeles Blockbusters did just enough to sneak past the San Diego Captains, 5-4, at Blockbuster Stadium. Los Angeles pitcher Wayne Guilmette, in particular, had a standout performance. Los Angeles reliever Joe Hamby picked up the win, raising his record to 9-2. Ken Craig was tagged with the loss.

Norm Parsons was the walk-off hero for Los Angeles. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Blockbusters center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Wayne mixed and matched," said Los Angeles manager John Trausch.

Los Angeles is now 67-79. San Diego is 81-64.
