Right fielder Jose Cruz jacked one out of the ballyard and had 2 RBI as the
streaking Hibbing Dylans defeated the slumping Cincinatti Royalty 7 to 6 at
Rolling Thunder Park.

Hibbing had the winning rally in the 8th inning with 3 runs on 4 hits.  After
an out was recorded, Bob Watson began the rally when he lined a base-hit.
Don Money followed and he reached on an error.  Roy Smalley then doubled
plating two runs.  Chet Lemon was next to the plate, but was promptly struck
out.  Cruz stepped into the box and doubled scoring the final run of the
inning.  Joe Sambito was perfect in relief and gained credit for his 15th
save.  

The winning pitcher was Adrian Devine(6-4) who allowed no runs in 2 innings.
Charlie Hough(6-9) was tagged with the loss in relief.  It was a tough loss
for him as he did not allow an earned run in his 1 inning of work.
