TEAM RISP- Loons: 8 for 18 Blasters: 1 for 6
Roger Clemens struck out 16 batters and right fielder Raul Mondesi had 4 hits
and 4 RBI at Fenway Park as the Minnesota Loons belted the Bristol Blasters
by the count of 13 to 3.
Mondesi was a seemingly constant irritant to the hometown fans as he provided
much of the offense for the visitors. He doubled scoring a run in the 5th
inning, delivered a one-base hit in the 6th inning, laced a base-hit
resulting in a run in the 8th inning and lifted one out of the park for a two
run home run in the 9th inning. Minnesota kept the scorekeepers busy in the
8th inning with 4 runs on 5 hits. Minnesota had 20 hits for the night.
Clemens(2-0) got the victory, allowing 3 runs for the game. Ben McDonald(0-1)
was the losing pitcher. He was hit hard and gave up 8 hits and 2 walks in 4
and 1/3 innings.
Steve Sustakowski was impressed with Clemens and his 16 strikeouts. 'It's
tough to generate runs if you can't make contact with the ball.'
