5-3 Loss Deepens Los Angeles Funk | The Cincinnati Cannons picked up a win at Tice Memorial Stadium II, knocking off the Los Angeles Stars, 5-3. Starting pitcher Marco Middleton was a big reason why. Paul Williams earned save number 7 this season. The second-place Stars have lost 6 consecutive games.
In the bottom of the third, Art McKinney delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the Cincinnati catcher hit a 2-run single, putting the Cannons in front, 5-3.
"Marco -- his tempo and rhythm were good," said Cannons manager Hal Upton. "He was the key to us winning." | |
