Captains Lose at Home, 5-4
The Los Angeles Blockbusters polished off the San Diego Captains by the score of 5-4. The largest share of the credit belonged to right fielder Jim Brookins. Brookins was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Blockbusters. Dario Fontanez was the winner. Over 8.1 innings, he yielded 4 runs on 12 hits, with 1 walk and 3 strikeouts. Earning his 3rd save for Los Angeles was Tom Benson.

Brookins had an important at-bat with the bases loaded in the top of the sixth, when he hit a sacrifice fly. The Blockbusters went on to win.

"We came in and got the job done. That's what it's all about in this business," said Brookins.

The loss puts San Diego at 11-5.
