Stars Capture Extra-Inning Win
Kansas City got a terrific game from first baseman Al Clement. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Los Angeles, 7-6, in 10 innings. Clement went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. The Stars saw their record improve to 51-61.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Los Angeles shortstop Ed Holmes, facing Mike Thorpe, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Stars the 7-6 win.

"Sometimes winning takes more than 27 outs," said Stars manager Ken Tannen.
