Chicago wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Manny Espinosa, falling to the Los Angeles Stars, 3-2. Espinosa threw 8.0 innings of 1-hit ball for the losing team. The loss makes Chicago 71-86.

Los Angeles got a clutch hit from Ed Bogan. The right fielder jolted a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"The house was rockin'," said Bogan.
