Second baseman Roberto Alomar went yard as the St Louis Park Orioles outscored
the Sterling Silver Sluggers 5 to 4.

St Louis Park brought 3 runs across the plate in the top of the 4th inning
when they had 4 base hits.  The key at-bat was by Jorge Posada who silenced
the stadium when he doubled which was good for two runs.  Sterling tried
unsuccessfully to come back in the 9th.  

The victory was credited to Greg Maddux(3-1) who went 6 innings, allowing 4
runs. Randy Myers was credited with his 2nd save.  Kevin Appier(3-1) was hit
with the loss.  Despite taking the loss, he whiffed 8 batters in 5 innings.

'Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals' said Connie Mack after the game.
'We lost this game today because we didn't follow the instructions every
Little Leaguer hears every day.'
