California won the game with a rally in the 9th inning as they scored 4 runs on 3 base hits. The big moment was provided by George Hendrick who helped quiet the crowd when he lifted one out of the park for a two run home run. A wild affair, this game saw the lead change 5 times.
Rafael Lugo(8-7) went 1 inning allowing 1 run for the victory. Donnie Moore got the save, his 28th. Don Aase(3-4) was the loser in relief. He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow an earned run in the game.
