WEB GEMS- Top 3rd: Carlton Fisk blocked the plate, saving a run!

One run was the difference at St Louis Park as the Denver Dingers ended a long
winless drought and defeated the Towanda Black Knights 8 to 7.

Dave Rozema(4-1) was lucky to get the win as he struggled out there tonight.
He gave up 7 runs, 9 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings and served up 3 'big
flies'.  Towanda made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push
the needed runs across.  

Pete Vuckovich recorded the save, his 9th.  Doug Capilla(1-1) was tagged with
the loss.  He saw his ERA jump from 0.71 to 3.18 as gave up 6 runs in 4 and
1/3 innings.
