Los Angeles Earns 7-6 Win
The Los Angeles Kings weathered an outstanding game by Wilmington third baseman Marco Estrada to topple the Blue Rocks, 7-6. Estrada was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Los Angeles reliever Terry Donohue picked up the win to move to 4-2. Rodolfo Merlos suffered the loss. With the win, Los Angeles upped its record to 25-19.

Korey Simms came through with a big-time hit for Los Angeles. The catcher smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 7-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I like our moxie," said Kings manager Jim KP.
