Amos Strunk helped his team muscle past the Bakersfield Blaze, 9-6. In the game, the Long Beach center fielder went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4. Rube Vickers earned the win to go to 4-6. He allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts in 5 innings of work. The victory gives the White Sox a record of 44-41.

With Long Beach leading 2-0 in the top of the second, Strunk hit a fastball from Tim Leary for a grand slam home run. It was his 9th home run of the season and put the White Sox ahead, 6-0.

"It was offense that won us the game," said winning manager Shane Polanco.
