Brookins Slugs Blockbusters to 8-0 Win
Blockbuster Stadium was the site for National Baseball League action featuring the Philadelphia Quakers and Los Angeles Blockbusters.

The 8-0 Los Angeles win over Philadelphia was due in large part to Jim Brookins. The Blockbusters right fielder hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. Wayne Guilmette was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 3 save opportunities.

In the bottom of the second, 26-year old right-handed pitcher Larry Messenger hit a run-scoring double. The 2nd double of the season for the Los Angeles pitcher put the Blockbusters on top, 1-0.

"We took it on the chin tonight," said losing manager Jeff Green.

The 6th-place Blockbusters now have a record of 30-34.
