The Denver Dingers ended a long winless drought and bested the Pinch Quicks by
a 9 to 6 score at Qualcomm Stadium.

Denver came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 8th inning
scoring 3 runs on 4 base hits.  Kevin Orie kicked off the action when he
slapped a base-hit.  Edgar Renteria stepped into the batter's box and he laid
down a sacrifice bunt.  Mike Macfarlane then ripped a base-knock.  One out
later, Gary Sheffield came to bat and banged out a single plating a run.
Rick Aguilera then let one get away for a wild pitch.  Mark McGwire extended
the rally and delivered a one-base hit driving home another two teammates.
Pinch proved to be no trouble in the 9th.  

Marc Wilkins(1-1) picked up the victory, allowing 4 runs in 1 and 1/3 innings.
Wilkins got relief help from John Wetteland who gained credit for his 12th
save.  Aguilera(0-2) took the loss in relief.  

Denver, who had been struggling lately, moved their record to a division
leading 21-9.  They are now 1-9 in their last ten games.  Pinch can't seem to
snap out of their recent 'funk'.  Now they have a miserable 0-10 record over
the last couple weeks.
