Blockbusters Pull Back to .500 With Win Over Knickerbockers
The Los Angeles Blockbusters topped the New York Knickerbockers, 7-3, in National Baseball League action at Blockbuster Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Los Angeles pitcher and Chicago, Illinois, native Larry Messenger. The Blockbusters have now won 5 straight.

Terry Steuart drew 1 walk for Los Angeles. The 36-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Jack Forbes. It was his 17th RBI of the season.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Steuart.
