Captains Rally to Win
The San Diego Captains had to overcome a fine effort from Cincinnati pitcher Alex Fonseca to win, 4-3, in 10 innings at Roman Arena. Fonseca went 9 innings and allowed 3 runs. The win belonged to Jack DeWitt in relief. His record improves to 1-2. Jerry Meek took the loss for Cincinnati. Brian Meade earned the save, his 2nd, for the Captains.

San Diego used the timely hitting of Bernie Scanlan to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Captains on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Cincinnati skipper Martin Abresch, "and it cost us."

The Packers fall to 9-13 and continue their lackluster start to the 1977 season.
