TEAM RISP- Royalty: 3 for 13 Loons: 2 for 5
Jay Johnstone went deep and had 3 RBI at The Looney Bin as the Minnesota Loons
beat the Cincinatti Royalty 5 to 4.
Minnesota came up with the deciding runs in the 8th inning plating 3 runs
using 3 hits. After two outs Dusty Baker began the Minnesota spurt when he
drew a walk. Butch Hobson followed next and he lined a single. Johnstone
then clubbed a three-run home run. Cincinatti threatened in the 9th but
their rally came up short.
The win was credited to Steve Foucault(2-1) who went 2 innings allowing no
runs. Charlie Hough(5-5) was the losing pitcher in relief.
'It's a disheartening loss, no question about it' said John O'Neal 'But we
have to get over it and get ready for the next game.'
