| Thunderbirds Bridle Knights, 4-2 | Seattle rode a fine outing from starter Dave Lavallee to victory over the Los Angeles Knights at Thunderbird Park. The final score was 4-2. In 7.2 innings, Lavallee surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. The Thunderbirds sport a record of 12-20.
In the top of the ninth, Bennie Griffith stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Knights were trailing 4-2, but had runners on 1st and 3rd. That's when Charlie Van Dyke made a terrific pitch and Griffith flied out. Gone was the dream of a Los Angeles comeback.
