Blockbusters Clobber Bobcats, 11-2
Thanks in large part to left fielder Kermit McDaniel, the Los Angeles Blockbusters beat the Cleveland Bobcats, 11-2. McDaniel went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The winning pitcher was Ralph Weintraub. He tossed 118 pitches over 7.2 innings, allowing no runs on 4 hits. The loss has the Bobcats at 13-13.

The Blockbusters got a big hit from first baseman Harvey Katzen. Facing Cleveland pitcher Chuck Galloway in the bottom of the sixth, Katzen pounded a bases-clearing double to center. His 7th double of the season put the Blockbusters ahead, 9-0.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Cleveland manager Daniel Mays. "They pounded us."
