Sosa Excels, Los Angeles Levels El Paso
The Los Angeles Stars defeated the El Paso Thunderbirds, 13-1, at Thunderdome. Leading the charge for Los Angeles was third baseman Jesús Sosa. He went 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. Maximino Trapa, the winning pitcher, improved to 6-5. He pitched 5.2 innings, giving up 7 hits and 1 run, while striking out 4 and walking 5. With the win, Los Angeles has a record of 36-46. El Paso falls to 38-44.

Los Angeles used a well-timed hit by Mejdan Kianjahe to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Stars ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

Said losing manager AP MP: "We need to play with more of an edge."
