Cuban Giants Lose to Sea Dogs, 5-4
The Portland Sea Dogs besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Miami left fielder Cookie Rojas by beating the Cuban Giants, 5-4, at Griffith Stadium. Rojas was 4-4 with 4 singles. Portland pitcher Bert Blyleven earned the win, hiking his record to 6-5. Kenshin Kawakami suffered the loss. Trevor Hoffman got the save, his 8th in 10 chances.

The Sea Dogs got a big at-bat from right fielder Harry Hooper. For the game, Hooper was 1-3 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the second, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, he stroked a 3-run home run. His 4th home run of the season gave Portland a 3-2 lead.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Hooper.

The win puts the Sea Dogs at 39-49, while the Cuban Giants drop to 42-46.
