Los Angeles Wastes Great Game by Brookins
Los Angeles right fielder Jim Brookins pounded New York Knickerbockers pitchers at Blockbuster Stadium, but it was not enough to keep the Blockbusters from falling, 8-7. Brookins went 4 for 5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Ollie Hundley was called on to finish, recording his 14th save. New York is third in the National Baseball League Eastern Division with a record of 35-32.

New York relied on the bat of Bob Marston to get the win. The center fielder ripped a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Knickerbockers ahead, 2-0. For the game, Marston had 1 double and 1 triple in 5 at-bats.

"It was a solid team effort," said Marston after the game.
