The San Francisco Meatballs faced a tough opponent in Toronto pitcher Yeong-suk Park, but did just enough to pull out the victory at SkyDome by a final score of 4-3. Park went 9 innings and allowed 4 runs. Dick Ellsworth, now 1-0, was credited with the win. He allowed no runs on 2 hits, while striking out 0 and walking 0. Earning his 2nd save of the year was Armando Martínez.

Larry Richardson provided a timely hit. The San Francisco pinch hitter delivered a 2-run triple in the top of the ninth inning to put the Meatballs on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"We squandered some opportunities," said Toronto manager Hollis Wright.

Toronto falls to 1-2.
