San Diego catcher Johnson Starks was a significant contributor in his team's 7-3 triumph over the Seattle Thunderbirds. He was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for San Diego. Luis Eireos got the win, improving to 5-5. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 5 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 6 and walking 3. The 6th-place Conquistadors go to 50-56.

With San Diego leading 3-2 in the bottom of the fifth, Starks came up to bat against Seattle pitcher Johnny Witt. Starks hit a cutter to right-center for a 2-run home run. His 1st home run of the season put the Conquistadors on top, 5-2.

"Good win," said Starks. "Maybe some of the whiners in the clubhouse will pipe down for a little while now."
