Suns Drop Clippers, 5-3
Starting pitcher Jimmy Blair pitched well enough to help the Los Angeles Suns beat the Baltimore Clippers, 5-3. The winner was Los Angeles reliever Bill Smith, now 2-0. The loser was Sonny Stoyer. Los Angeles is now 67-55. Baltimore is 63-58.

Tom Lally provided a timely hit. The Los Angeles shortstop delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the 14th inning to put the Suns on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"That was your kind of game, if you like high drama," said Suns manager Jim Coulter.
