WEB GEMS- Bot 1st: Freddie Patek robbed Darrell Evans of a base hit.

Right fielder Otto Velez launched 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI as the Pittsburgh
Bichipoos beat the Sterling Silver Sluggers by a score of 8 to 2.

Velez really lit it up for Pittsburgh.  The Sterling fans let him have it for
what he did to their boys.  He doubled in the 4th inning, blasted a two-run
home run in the 6th inning and belted a three-run homer in the 8th inning.
Pittsburgh rapped out 7 hits for the night.  

The win was credited to Mike Krukow(3-2) who went 5 and 2/3 innings allowing 2
runs. Vida Blue(4-7) was charged with the loss.  'Actually, I didn't feel
that comfortable at the plate tonight' Velez said after the game.  'Despite
that, I'm happy with the results!
