TEAM RISP- Timber: 9 for 15  Blasters: 1 for 6

Larry Walker had 3 base hits at Fenway Park as the Michigan Timber beat the
slumping Bristol Blasters by the count of 11 to 2.

Michigan had 9 runs cross the plate in the 6th inning with the help of 10
hits.  The key at-bat was by Rey Sanchez who disappointed the partisan crowd
when he stroked a base-hit bringing in two baserunners.  Michigan had 17 hits
for the game and Bristol had 9.  

The win went to Mike Hampton(6-5) who allowed 2 runs in 6 and 2/3 innings.
Dennis Springer(2-3) ended up with the loss.  He got hammered, allowing 10
hits and 4 walks in 5 and 2/3 innings.
