TEAM RISP- Loons: 4 for 14  Blasters: 1 for 3

The Minnesota Loons and the hapless Bristol Blasters locked up in an exciting
one-run game at Veterans Stadium.  The final score was the Minnesota Loons 5,
the hapless Bristol Blasters 4.

The game was won by Minnesota with a run in the top of the 9th inning.  Jason
Thompson doubled.  Dusty Baker stepped up to the plate and he laced a
base-knock.  Butch Hobson was the next batter, but he struck out.  Jay
Johnstone followed and he delivered a one-base hit scoring the run.  Steve
Foucault pitched a perfect ninth to earn his 15th save.  

Max Leon(4-1) picked up the victory, allowing no runs in 1 inning. Bob
Stanley(1-3) took the loss in relief.  He surrendered 1 run and 3 hits in 1
inning.  

Minnesota, who had been struggling lately, moved their record to 45-49.  They
are now 2-8 in their last ten games.  Bristol continued their losing ways and
their record is now 27-54, worst in the division.  They are 0-10 in their
last ten games.
